The universe pays no mercy to the life that is created across time. Alien species that have survived its chaos know this, and have made it their purpose to preserve any life that is created and found. Whether its mountain sized leviathans, beetle-like beings, or hivemind structures that span lightyears, they are all owed a chance for a future among the stars. But thousands of galaxies away, a man named Joel Robson struggles with the absence of his own purpose. Trying to tolerate an already broken life, his world is suddenly challenged when he finds himself on a self-destructive path leading him into the jaws of a sociopathic murderer, a group of powerfully gifted people, and discovering violent abilities of his own.
The events of Joel's journey are experienced through an unexpected love, a yearning for purpose, and across the unknown vastness of the universe. What he finds on the other side forces him to choose between his beliefs, or a newfound hope in saving humanity from the evil that haunts him.
