Nigel Sheldon has established his new civilisation in the Andromeda Galaxy.

He realises that he acted with unreasonable hubris, believing he could destroy the...
The main action opens shortly after Bienvenido's expulsion from the Void at the conclusion of The Abyss Beyond Dreams. Bienvenido has been placed in a star system so far from any galaxy that no other individual star is visible.

Threatened by Paula's existence, the Fallers have raided one of the government's nuclear weapons facilities, detonating one of the weapons at the facility to cover their tracks.
