A black hole that emits particles of truth. A spy on a mission to uncover the danger. A war brewing across the stars.
The black hole known as Angelmass does more than bend time and space. Its mysterious particles—dubbed “angels”—have a strange effect on the human mind, suppressing lies and encouraging calm, rational behavior. The distant Empyrean colonies rely on them. Earth’s ruling Pax empire sees them as a threat.
Academic Jereko Kosta never wanted to be a spy, but now he must infiltrate the Empyrean and uncover the truth about Angelmass. What he finds will challenge science, ethics, and the future of humanity itself.
Angelmass is a thought-provoking space opera from Timothy Zahn, blending golden-age adventure with big questions about control, free will, and power.
