Summary
"Some people take the view that we happen by accident. I think that there is something much deeper, of which we have very little inkling at the moment." - Sir Roger Penrose
“Existence is a fact. We are all here and now. Nonexistence is an abstraction of the human mind... This is the reason I think that a [cyclic universe], which has always existed, is simpler than one that has been created." - Nelson Pinto-Neto
Somewhere deep in the Mojave Desert, a conservationist remembers a life she never lived and a woman she’s never met. When a mysterious redhead blows into town, memory begins to bleed across lifetimes and reality becomes more idea than fact. Her only salvation lies in the golden eyes that undid her in the first place.

Summary
Harrow kept her eyes on the horizon. "Do I disappoint you, honored wife?"
Gideon was starting to think that 'honored wife' was a placeholder for 'fucking asshole' or something similar. "Not at all. I think more girls should aspire to be gremlins when they grow up."
[God has been absent for centuries and BoE conquers the Houses. To solidify their claim, they have the daughter of Commander Wake marry one of the House officials.]
