Cosmic Carnival

This is a profoundly unbalanced universe, where someone in jeans is bound to cross paths with someone in power armor.

It is also an absurd universe, where corporations have become empires and laws have become religions.

The world is bigger than you can imagine, with civilization stretched almost to the edge of the universe. Yet it is also small enough to make you despair, with tens of thousands of light-years of wasteland separating one civilization from another.

Here, the only thing you need to remember is that anything can happen. Come on, I believe you'll have a wonderful time. This isn't heaven or hell. It's a carnival.

(Note: To head off anyone nitpicking the details, I hereby declare that this novel is not science fiction.)
