    <![CDATA[In the twenty-second century Earth obtains limitless, free energy from a source science little understands: an exchange between Earth and a parallel universe, using a process devised by the aliens.  But even free energy has a price.  The transference process itself will eventually lead to the destruction of Earth's Sun&#8212;and of Earth itself.<br/><br/>Only a few know the terrifying truth&#8212;an outcast Earth scientist, a rebellious alien inhabitant who senses the imminent annihilation of the Sun. They know the truth&#8212;but who will listen? They have foreseen the cost of abundant energy&#8212;but who will believe? These few beings, human and alien, hold the key to Earth's survival.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Another &quot;one off&quot; from a major sci-fi master.  Totally unrelated to any of his other stories, this one is a mind-bender.  A trans-universal thriller in which everything depends upon a near-impossible cooperation between physicists here on earth, and beings in another existence so alien and...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/6759210">more...</a>]]></body>
