The careless suburban teen Christian Kalm joins with a supernova, which has developed a personality after passing through a psychoplasma cloud. Together they travel all across the universe in search of a world good enough to stay in without remorse. On the way they unknowingly initiate the return of the Messiah, who meets the fate that can be expected. But Christian Kalm moves on through time and the fifth dimension he is the one to discover. Christian's quest, which is initiated by the blunder of forgetting that time is not a constant, brings him to many worlds so different from his own - but sadly alike in lacking a convincing and lasting meaning, no matter how marvelous they may seem at first. Christian is not the one to give up without trying everything imaginable. In his case, and with his strange companion, that's a lot.
