A despondent Benedikt Rafnkelsson is ready to end his nothing life when the unthinkable happens: a cosmic disaster pitches Earth into a violent tectonic upheaval. Suddenly, a portal appears, and Benedikt escapes death by stepping into the future. Seeing what becomes of humankind thousands of years later, he returns to the present and begins his quest to save the world, becoming a hero.
Years later, Grady Smith is preparing his brother, Kenny, to join Benedikt’s cause. Brilliant and athletic, Kenny is a local superstar. However, when Kenny fears he may fail a final health exam, he convinces Grady to secretly take the exam for him. That decision sets off a chain of events that puts the brothers on the wrong side of the law, and sends them hurtling into a future that looks nothing like what Benedikt has promised.
A thrilling tale of corruption, greed, and power as well as humankind’s unrelenting drive for survival. And hope.
