Quatrième de couverture

The Child who Talked to the Stars

An adolescent searching for the memory of his recently deceased grandfather discovers a mysterious site on the Internet. It offers to help him discover the secrets of the universe and understand the meaning of life. He enrols in the « School for Astrosophical Wisdom », and sets off down the road of an unbelievable adventure, which takes the form of an initiation into the heart of the universe, of matter and in the end, of life itself. A philosophical and scientific tale that is also a beautiful love story.

This adventure continues in Volume 2, « The Logic of Infinity », and Volume 3, « The Legacy of the Stars. »
