The First Traverse - Book Two

On the world of the Yl'reth, time is not a straight lineit's a loop that unravels backward. Here, memories arrive before the events that cause them. Festivals are judged before they happen. Relationships end before they begin. And crises occur long before anyone understands what caused them.In this surreal and often absurd second arc of The Fifth Traverse, The Wanderer's crew must navigate a world where cause and effect have stopped cooperating. From bureaucratic time rituals to memory-based civilizations, they must uncover a mystery that hasn't happened yet.Blending lyrical prose, philosophical depth, and cosmic satire, The Planet That Dreams in Reverse explores identity, consequence, and what happens when the future no longer waits its turn.For fans of Ted Chiang, Italo Calvino, and the lyrical weirdness of space, this is science fiction where memory matters more than truth.
