A millennium has arrived, a new dawn for mankind, but the universe has plans of its own.
The year is 5999 and humanity have discovered, developed, and inhabited planet Quazar. Using environmentally sanitised design mankind has built a perfect world free from war, oppression, and political segregation. A giant megalopolis wraps the planet with complex functional efficiency, but the human is still liable to disobedience and crime. Dylan Ajax stands wide eyed to the utopia before him, and his intuitive nature has beckoned him to question life. What does he want to be? Who does he want to be? Serendipity has a disruptive way of forcing destiny as a case full of narcotics lands in his lap and takes him on a journey of adventure and danger through theme parks, the city, and sky. David Bell, a sophisticated pioneering astronomer, investigates a missing galactic ship. Corporate credit supply to the space programme has been scarce due to its frustrating disappearance and salvation for the space division’s financial bursaries sits in his hand. He takes one final look into the void, through his space based telescope named ‘Cat’s Eye’, before he conceits that the galactic ship is forever lost, but what he finds shakes the foundation of civilisation. Will mankind survive? The end is here.

The architecture he thought, I adore the architecture.
The entire planet was a giant megalopolis, a sanctuary of buildings, a world of high-concept structural design. From his apartment view Dylan could pick out dozens of his favourites. The Japanese industrial quarter, just three miles away, the lowest buildings in view, resembled a giant computer circuit board with the factory buildings positioned like microchips, interconnected by roadways and dotted with plant life. Much of the world’s architecture had been inspired and designed with the computational and technological eye, like the neighbouring buildings, headquarters of the genetics corporations. Each luminescent, multi-coloured super skyscraper coiled high like the corkscrew image of genetic coding; the next quarter was a vast residential urbanised area. The topology mapped a grid-like layout with tall square buildings enveloped by indented glass shells reminiscent of the surface of a golf ball.
