Beyond the Stars, Beneath Our Fears
Imagine a universe where humanity has spread across the stars, yet remains utterly alone. This isn't the comforting solitude of being the first to achieve spaceflight - it's the eerie silence of a galaxy that should be teeming with ancient civilizations but instead offers only ruins and whispers. In Revelation Space, this cosmic emptiness isn't mere chance - it's by design. The novel weaves together three seemingly disconnected narratives that converge around a chilling answer to the Fermi paradox: what if intelligent life is rare not because it's difficult to evolve, but because something systematically eliminates it? The story unfolds across vast distances and timescales, where relativistic space travel means that decades pass between destinations. This isn't your typical space opera with convenient faster-than-light travel. Here, the harsh physics of our universe remains intact - a constraint that creates both narrative tension and philosophical weight. When characters make decisions, they do so knowing they might return to find everyone they knew long dead, civilizations transformed, or entire worlds altered beyond recognition.
