β¦ Synopsis
This dazzling contemporary novel of ideas begins with, The Alchemy of Genius, and ends with, A Vanishing Act. John Fast is a scientific genius who struggles to solve the infinite mystery of the universe. As a boy he encounters the sign of the macrocosm; as a youth he investigates the secrets of nature; as a man he discovers the pattern in the information. And so he stands on the verge of the greatest scientific breakthrough of all time. Set in Princeton and New York, ca. Halloween, 2028, to Halloween, 2046, the story folds back to the first moment of Creation, and folds forward to the last moment of the Apocalypse. A book of science and magic, Fausts Shadow reveals the history of the future.
