The Very Large Object That ATE the Other Very Large Objects!
The Sargasso. Space ships go in, and they don't come back. But
as the all-destroying Nefrim drive humanity from the stars,
everything depends on one captain's desperate gambit: to dial
his stardrive to zero—to "fall off the map"—and plunge into the
ocean-covered pocket universe that is the Sargasso. Within is a
secret that can change a galaxy. And, though escape is a trick
generations of trapped starfarers have tried and failed to
master—now the fate of two universes depends on Mikail Volkov
being the first to GET OUT!
