Valkyries by Michael Brand
Requirements: ePUB / MOBI Reader, 1.0MB
Overview: The Valkyries are calling to Dima Tversky, their silent pull a constant tug shaping his life, a force returning him to life after he, himself, had despaired of it. One last time they compel him, but this time what they ask for is the impossible: now an old and terminally-ill man, worn down by tragedy and grief, Tversky must find a way to leave earth and head for the stars… to meet the Valkyries that await him.
Grasping for straws, Tversky enlists the one man he knows who thrives on impossibility: Oleg Potyomkin, a once-friend from a long-past life, who had become – if one is to believe the news – a self-appointed archnemesis to consensus and a systematic disassembler of scientific certainty.
But unbeknownst to Tversky, this man, who only a short while ago had been a physics luminary, a folk hero and an inventor-cum-billionaire, had in the interim been stripped of his fortunes and cast out as a fraud, his theories publicly ridiculed by a scientific consensus that refused to topple, struck back and reasserted itself despite Oleg’s mightiest efforts.
Teaming up, the mismatched pair constructs Wing-1, a spaceship powered by a combination of Potyomkin’s impossible science and Tversky’s Valkyries-inspired technology, and on board it, the two embark on a voyage that takes them out to the farthest edges of the universe and beyond.
On this vessel that bends time, distorts space and alters reality, finding the Valkyries seems to Tversky a certainty. The only question is, when they do, how much will be left of their sanity.
