Kit stared at this fellow questors. "Is this it: the End of Everything?" It starts with small, seemingly insignificant wrinkles in time. Then a busy bridge suddenly disappears, spilling cars into the sea. A beast from another realm roams modern streets. Napoleon's army appears in 1930s Damascus ready for battle. The questors of the Zetetic Society are spread across the universe. At the command centre of the Jansky Very Large Array Radio Telescope astronomers think that parts of the universe have stopped expanding: and begun to contract. Mina is stuck on a plain of solid ice, only an angry cave lion for company. And evil Lord Burleigh is locked in a dungeon, his survival dependent on the kindness of the very man he tried to kill. Kit and Cass are back in the Stone Age trying to reach the Spirit Well. But a huge yew tree now covers the portal, cutting off their path. Unless they can find a way through, Kit's fears for the end of the future will be fulfilled. In this final volume of the fantastic Bright Empires series, Stephen R. Lawhead brings his multi-layered tale to a stunning and satisfying conclusion.
