Jeremy just wanted a cup of coffee. He pulls into a quiet little town on the Oregon coast, figures he’ll stay a while — it seems friendly enough. What he doesn’t know is that somewhere above him, a starship from the planet Tandalar just got blindsided by something enormous while testing a new space drive. The crew is picking themselves up off the floor, shaken to their cores.
Down below, a middle-aged eccentric in the same small town is feeling an odd pull toward a massive anomaly lurking near the coast — and thinks he could use some company. Through a string of unlikely coincidences, five very different humans and a crew of star travelers end up thrown together, tumbling into adventures across inner and outer dimensions, brushing up against strange beings, and chasing destinies none of them saw coming.
Big questions surface along the way: Who are we, really? How did the cosmos get here — and why these particular people? As it turns out, both space and consciousness can be bent in surprising ways, and everyone — human and alien alike — comes out the other side changed.
