He was a nameless drunk, forgotten and ignored. Then the star creatures came. Infinitely recombining, seemingly indestructible, the creatures brought answers to every problem. They promised perfection, asking nothing in return.
Except it wasn't that easy. It never is. By the time the last question is answered, the last human will be dead. Half the world's population is ecstatic, believing they can stop asking questions once their problems, along with all the riff raff, are gone. The other half is appalled, believing the worth of a single human soul exceeds the worth of a perfect world. Cosmologist Peter Lowgoss is the first to see them coming and the first to recognize the danger. Uniting with a small-town diner chef, an abnormally competent politician, a hillbilly militia leader, and four slacker teens, Lowgoss leads the charge to save humanity. But how can such a small band of heroes stop the unstoppable? How can they destroy the indestructible? How can they save humanity from the curse of imposed perfection? The drunk could tell them, if only someone asked.Also from
