"The Enginemen are history. Once they pushed the bigships through the cobalt blue glory of the Nada-Continuum, linking all the inhabited worlds.

"But faster than light isn't fast enough anymore; the interfaces of the Keilor-Vincicoff Organisation twist space and bring planets light years distant a simple step away.

"When a man with half a face offers ex-Engineman Ralph Mirren the chance to escape his ruined life and push a ship to an undisclosed destination he's got nothing to lose.

"The Nada-Continuum holds the key to Ralph's future. What he cannot anticipate is its universal importance. And in the brilliant radiance of the Continuum something is going wrong. Apocalyptically wrong..." [jacket blurb, UK pbk, 1994] *note: Many of Eric Brown's short stories also take place in the Nada-Continuum.
