A stunning debut by new author Neil Birnie.
Praised by US readers, with 15 five-star reviews on Amazon.com.In a world where everyone is immortal, where every desire is granted instantly and technology has erased suffering, humanity believes it has achieved true paradise. But perfection is a fragile illusion - and something has crossed into their universe to shatter it.
An ancient invader, drawn to the very life-essence that fuels their eternal existence, begins to feed. Immortality becomes a trap. Safety becomes a memory. And paradise becomes the perfect hunting ground.
Blending philosophy, consciousness, action, love, dark humour, and inventive technology, this explosive and intelligent novel introduces unforgettable characters and a universe unlike anything you've seen before.
A bold, original, can't-put-down read for fans of epic sci-fi, metaphysical adventure, futuristic worlds, alien threats, and thought-provoking storytelling.
Explosive. Intelligent. Original. A gripping exploration of what it truly means to be alive.
