A girl matches wits with a war god in this kaleidoscopic, epic tale of oppression and the cost of peace, where stories hide within other stories, and narrative has the power to heal… or to burn everything in its path.

In the winding underground tunnels of the Library, the great celestial peacekeeper of the three systems, a terrible secret lies buried.

As the daughter of a Library god, Freida has spent her whole life exploring the Library's ever-changing tunnels and communing with the gods. Her unparalleled access makes her unique – and dangerous.

When Freida meets Joshua, a mortal boy desperate to save his people, and Nergüi, a Disciple from a persecuted religious minority, Freida is compelled to break ranks with the gods and help them. But in order to do so, she will have to venture deeper into the Library than she has ever known. There she will discover the atrocities of the past, the truth of her origins, and the impossibility of her future…

With the world at the brink of war, Freida embarks on a journey to fulfill her destiny, one that pits her against an ancient war god. Her mission is straightforward: Destroy the god before he can rain hellfire upon thousands of innocent lives – if he doesn't destroy her first.

A sparkling, thought-provoking new offering from World Fantasy Award-winning author Alaya Dawn Johnson.

People say that hindsight is 20/20 What if foresight could be 20/20? Quantum Theory suggests that where a person is in time determines WHEN that person is in time. The big bang, is ?time zero?. Dinosaurs would still rule the earth at a point in space 650 million years behind our current location on our current trajectory. At a point that is located 1650 years behind us, on our current trajectory, the Romans would still dominate Europe. At a point that is a mere 80 years behind us, the outcome of World War Two would still hang in the balance. If a Tachyon wave slammed into the solar system, moving it backwards one year in space-time and slightly altering the direction our solar system was traveling in space. How would the humans living in that moment handle their opportunity to alter their own future? Would they take advantage that random chance and change their lives for the better, or would they simply ignore that opportunity and repeat the mistakes of the past.
