About this audiobook
If we knew every detail of past events, could we predict all future events? With a precise map of the future in hand, couldn’t we add a butterfly’s wing flap here, subtract a raindrop there and render Utopia? The Cosmo's oldest intelligent species thinks so.
Millions of years ago, they built an interactive model of global events and turned their best and boldest loose in the perilous, unregulated clockwork to compete for a solution, so far without results.
Among the current competitors, one person, Laplace, harbors a heretical suspicion that something is off with the entire project.
Now he must face past crimes, a vengeful God, and an eschatological cult to get at a truth that may be more than he bargained for.
