Alexander Hide thought he was closing in on the truth-thought he had sacrificed enough to finally understand it all. But with every step forward, the answers slip further from his grasp, leaving him with only one certainty-Earth's annihilation is no longer a distant threat-it's here and now. As the fabric of reality frays and the forces at play grow more incomprehensible, Alexander realizes the greatest threat isn't coming from the stars or the machines surrounding him. It is much nearer. With time and space unraveling and humanity's survival hanging by a thread, Alexander must confront the unsettling truth that saving the world may demand more than putting his own life at risk. To protect the ones he loves, he will have to sacrifice far more than he ever thought possible. In this explosive third installment of The Allbeing Chronicles, the final battle for existence begins. Destiny has caught up to Alexander Hide-will he rise to meet it, or fall with the world?
