A Theory Of Everything

Man’s empire spanned the entire solar system: from icy outposts in the Kuiper belts, subterranean settlements on Mars, a half-constructed sphere around the Sun and every manner of orbiting space stations in between. Yet nothing could have prepared them for the day that would come. The day of first contact. They, as it turns out, did not come in peace: they came for conquest. And for the first time in human history, mankind was not the technologically superior side. Not by a far margin. A desperate race for survival would begin. Humanity’s only chance at victory is to gain an even footing. They must go faster-than-light. Caught up in the struggle is the genius Mikale Gedding, a Harvard Professor of Physics. Humanity stakes all their hopes upon him, but yet, he is not the innocuous and stubborn professor he seems to be. Wrapped up inside him are countless secrets: an ancient war, a lost civilisation, a key to a dreadful power. But buried deepest of all—his identity.
