The end of the universe happened at around ten o'€™clock at night on 22 December, 2032. It'€™s just that humanity hasn'€™t realized it yet. And the Chaga, the strange flora deposited from the stars, is still busy terraforming the tropics into someone else'€™s terra. Gaby McAslan was once a hungry news reporter who compromised her relationship with UNECTA researcher Dr. Shepard for the sake of her story... but Gaby is no longer a journalist and she doesn'€™t want to be a full-time mother, even though her child Serena is her last link with Shepard. Gaby'€™s fire has gone out; she'€™s gone soft. But the massive political and military upheavals rocking the world are about to drag her back into the action. REVIEWS This is a huge and ambitious novel, the work of a supremely talented writer approaching the top of his game.'€™ '€“ SFX '€˜So outstanding a writer that he deserves reading beyond the science-fantasy market ... He has such marvellous talent, so vivid an imagination. His prose sings and zings '€“ simultaneously.'€™ '€“ The Times
