The Tarig constructed the concentric circles fortress Ahnenhoon to protect the engine that uses the Rose universe as its prime power source to provide energy to sustain the Entire universe. In the Rose universe, sentient beings on planet Earth realize that the power drain caused by the Ahnenhoon will suck life out of this universe.

Pilot Titus Quinn knows the only way to save Earth’s universe is to destroy the Ahnenhoon engine, although that could result in destroying the rival universe where his wife and daughter reside. Scientist Helice Maki insists humanity cannot trust Quinn to do his job, as he has a motive to keep the Entire functioning. Maki believes Quinn will try to skip the Rose for the Entire to find his wife, Johanna, abducted by the Tarig over a decade ago and probably incarcerated inside Fortress Ahnenhoon; and once he rescues her, they will search for their missing daughter, Sydney. Maki is sent to accompany Quinn on his mission, but the scientist has a scheme to use the nano-technological weapon to take control of the Ahnenhoon engine and from there usurp the Tarig, as the powers of two universes fight for survival.

The sequel to Bright of the Sky is much more complex than described above, as the two “dueling” universes contain convoluted relationships; thus plenty of twists and spins await readers who accompany Titus on his quest. The storyline is action-packed but also further describes the two universes, especially the Entire, while key characters, like beleaguered Quinn and ambitious Maki are fully developed. With two universes on the brink of mass destruction, science fiction fans will want to join Quinn on the mission.
