Hannah Lasker is facing the most difficult decision of her life. Should she get the new immortality vaccine that will stop her body from aging?

After decades of struggling, the broken remnants of humanity barely escape on the last starship from a cataclysmic otherworldly threat and wanders in the darkness of space for blind hope and a desolate future. They eventually find themselves on a journey and a fight for ancient wisdom, long forgotten civilizations and a mythical planet called Earth, yet the cycle of endless dark secrets, oppression, destruction and fear is in pursuit. And in the end, is there anything left? Takatsu's approach on the well traversed theme is a haunting literary and deeply metaphysical experience where the interstellar novel's grim and traumatized characters search the cosmos for answers to the greater age old questions on spirituality, the human condition, mortality, history, mythology, higher dimensions and our place in the stars.
