On the winter world of Icefall, young Danlo has grown up among a tribe of humans genetically altered to lead a primitive existence. When his tribe is ravaged by plague, he is forced to give up this simple, spiritual life to journey across the frozen wastes to the fabled city of Neverness, the teeming center of a vast galactic civilization.
Here,
a great destiny beckons Danlo – to pilot a ship to the heart of the
galaxy and battle a deadly bloom of light that is consuming worlds and
suns as it races toward his planet. But first he must confront the legend
of his true father, a bold adventurer who is worshipped as a god – and
the terrible allure of becoming a god himself.
From David Zindell, a master of imaginative fiction, comes a monumental
epic of galactic grandeur and the human mind, a sweeping tale of a
dying future world menaced by dreams of divinity and by the implacable
advance of cosmic destruction.
