Dan asked J.S. Dewes:

I am reading The Last Watch currently and I am liking it a lot so far. I am a bit confused by the scale of the universe vs galaxy. Is The divide at the 'end' of the universe or of the galaxy? Book says universe but every explanation implies galaxy. Anyhow, hope you have nice holidays!

J.S. Dewes Thanks, I'm so glad you're enjoying it!

The Divide is the edge of the universe, specifically. Their galaxy is positioned "near" (100 million ly) the edge, so there's nothing of note between the Divide and their galaxy. But the Divide itself doesn't encroach on their galaxy (yet, at least... 😅)

Hope that helps! Enjoy!
