A never-before-published masterpiece from a legendary science fiction writer, rediscovered after over fifty years. When Joel Johnston met Jinny Hamilton, he felt it was a dream come true, especially when she agreed to marry him. However, he faced a significant hurdle: he was broke and focused solely on becoming a composer, knowing it would take years to support a family. Jinny, unwilling to wait, revealed a shocking truth: her real name was Jinny Conrad, granddaughter of Richard Conrad, the wealthiest man in the solar system. Confident that Joel loved her for who she was, she disclosed her family's intentions for him—to be groomed for a role in the Conrad empire and start a dynasty. Most would seize such an opportunity, but Joel was different. To Jinny's surprise, he declined her offer and embarked on a reckless bender, only to awaken on a colony ship heading into space. Torn between regret and a desire to forge his own path among the stars, he aimed for success. However, his plans—and those of billions—were upended by a catastrophic cosmic event that would demand humanity's utmost strength and ingenuity for survival.
