Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Go David shouldn't exist.He's a copy, a neuroclone created for a thirteen-hundred-year journey that ended before it began. For decades, he's hidden from that truth on a farm, raising thruman children and growing apples, trying to forget he was ever supposed to reach the stars.Then his dimension-hopping partner Joan returns from the quantum foam with impossible news: the universe is dying. Every star will burn out, leaving nothing but cold, empty void. But an ancient alien civilization has given her the tools to stop it, if humanity can prove itself worthy.Suddenly Go is back in the cosmos he abandoned: testifying before the Galactic Court, hunting time crystals that threaten to shred Earth at the subatomic level, and confronting the original David, the man whose life he was built to mirror. All while living on the surface of a red dwarf star with a dragon scientist who burns every meal he cooks.But the real question isn't whether he can help save the universe.It's whether a man who was never meant to be can finally figure out who he is.From stellar barbecues to black hole containment, from thruman adoption programs to the fate of cosmic expansion itself, DESTINY is about the small moments that make infinity worth saving-and what happens when the copy writes his own story.For readers who loved the found family warmth of Becky Chambers and the philosophical depth of Ursula K. Le Guin. Whyte, Jamie (illustrator).…
