Around the year 200,000 AD, twelve year old Ar enjoys a simple happy life but suddenly is sent away into the dangerous Derjalla society, where a wrong word will mean death for his family and friends. He discovers an unexpected future and responsibility. At the same time he has to find his own way in life, meet his love Alaska and deal with her. An overpopulated universe already caused the complete destruction of Earth, the cradle of mankind. Scheming factions are on a path towards an interstellar total war. When that universe hits on Ar, he finds his true destiny, to save mankind before it destroys him and all that he loves. The story is both fun and serious, both philosophical and humourous. It combines technology with theology, and romance with political science. It is both an enjoyable fairy tale and a sobering reflection on mankind as we know it. A review in SF Terra: "(...) convincing (...) its style is a great pleasure (...) very interesting for lovers of utopias and dystopias" (2010).
