A HUNT THROUGH ETERNITY
In the closing moments of the Quantum War, Belisarius disappeared into a collapsing wormhole, and was thought lost forever.
Now the Puppet priestess Rosalie Johns-10 is suffering increasingly powerful nightmares, revealing strange geometries. Belisarius’s old lover Cassandra and the AI Saint Matthew eventually work out the nightmares are a signal, originating somewhere—and somewhen—in the 11-dimensional space of the Axis Mundi time gates.
Cassandra, Rosalie and Saint Matthew, joined by their comrade Stills, head off on a hunt through time itself—a hunt that will take them to the ancient beginnings of the mysterious network, in the earliest era of the universe…
