He was built to carry a bomb-one capable of erasing the entire solar system. Programmed with a single mission: run. Run as far from Earth as possible and never stop, lest the timer tick down and all life end.
But somewhere between the stars, amidst hostile alien threats, forgotten civilizations, and unlikely friendships, the robot without a name began to question what it meant to exist. To feel. To choose.
Now known as Cal, he journeys through space with the weight of a weapon in his chest and the spark of something human in his soul. As warlords seek to capture him and galaxies hang in the balance, Cal must find a place to die where no one will suffer-unless he discovers a reason to live instead.
From the author of The Gravedigger and The Skull of Dracula, comes a powerful sci-fi odyssey about identity, sacrifice, and hope in the face of annihilation.
He was made to run.
But he stopped... when it mattered most.
