Description
C'est un monde où l'homme a atteint un degré de technologie inédit ... Il peut programmer la matière et reproduire à peu près n'importe quelle substance ; il peut transmettre instantanément informations et matière, d'un bout à l'autre du système solaire. Et ce, grâce au collapsium, un cristal composé de trous noirs miniatures, utilisé pour constituer l'Anneau collapsial, une structure géante encerclant le Soleil. L'inventeur du collapsium, Bruno de Towaji, vit en reclus sur une petite planète qu'il a construite pour lui-même. Il est appelé à la rescousse lorsque l'Anneau collapsial est victime d'un sabotage. Marlon Sykes, grand rival de Bruno, en sciences comme en amour, est l'ordonnateur de ce projet grandiose. Devant la menace, les deux génies doivent unir leurs efforts pour sauver le système solaire d'un anéantissement total ... [4e de couverture]
