Outre-espace. Temps futurs.
Depuis des millénaires, Tay abrite une humanité parfaitement adaptée aux conditions d’un monde-océan. Pour le jeune Ptey, le moment est venu de rejoindre la Maison de Multiplication et découvrir les huit personnalités qui le constituent, ses Aspects — un rite de passage essentiel qui le changera à jamais. Mais dans le ciel de Tay, depuis des décennies maintenant, se presse la Communauté anpreen, huit cents vaisseaux titanesques à la coque de glace nanorenforcée en quête de ressources. Car aussi puissante que soit l’Anpreen, cette très vieille espèce du Clade, elle n’en est pas moins en fuite — et en ruine. En effet, l’armada anpreen n’est que l’écho d’un conflit immensément plus vaste, et l’Ennemi est sur ses talons, il approche, il sera bientôt là. Quel sort réservera-t-il au paisible monde de Tay une fois l’objet de son ire réduit à néant ?
Pour Ptey reste la fuite, mais pour aller où ?

Ian Neil McDonald was born in 1960 in Manchester, England, to an Irish mother and a Scottish father. He moved with his family to Northern Ireland in 1965. He used to live in a house built in the back garden of C. S. Lewis's childhood home but has since moved to central Belfast, where he now lives, exploring interests like cats, contemplative religion, bonsai, bicycles, and comic-book collecting. He debuted in 1982 with the short story "The Island of the Dead" in the short-lived British magazine Extro. His first novel, Desolation Road, was published in 1988. Other works include King of Morning, Queen of Day (winner of the Philip K. Dick Award), River of Gods, The Dervish House (both of which won British Science Fiction Association Awards), the graphic novel Kling Klang Klatch, and many more. His most recent publications are Planesrunner and Be My Enemy, books one and two of the Everness series for younger readers (though older readers will find them a ball of fun, as well). Ian worked in television development for sixteen years, but is glad to be back to writing full-time.
