| Summary: | Earth is an energy-starved madhouse of selfish and superficial inhabitants who have depleted its resources. and where spacers are hated as power wasters. But starship captain Shetland's life is dedicated to finding new energy sources for Earth. Navigating a time ship into the void beyond the universe, the search takes him into deepest space and time where he and his crew discover a galaxy-sized black hole, the ghosts of all reality. The most horrifying ghost of all, the ghost of their universe, where his crew are shattered into beings of pure will. And he found another ghost. Alice, the chemist of the Meg II, had committed suicide and now wandered its corridors, lost in a lonely, private hell. The rest of the crew were soon to follow her. Beyond the galaxy-sized black hole at the edge of the universe, another universe waited, a universe of ghosts that would turn Shetland and his crew into ectoplasmic energy-beings. and he must help them to regain their humanity. |
