Produktbeschreibung
A small planet closely orbits its neighboring star,and always with the same face it looks at it in awe.Thus the planet is divided into two distinct halves.On one side, the land where the Sun never rises or sets,but stays fixed on its spot in the sky.On the other side, whatever may be remains shrouded in dark,unseen and unknown due to the absent touch of light.A civilization thrives in the land of the Sun,surrounded by perennial greens, fertile soil and warmth.They do not need to wonder about what lies beyond.They have each other, their daughters, and their home.But a trial has been set in stone by their ancestors,to test and determine who is fit enough to lead.To the very edge of the world they must travel,where the Sun finally hides and something else appears;a true secret of old well kept and concealed.What is this knowledge waiting patiently in the shadows?What does such a journey entail for the body, mind, and self?There is only one way to find out.
Autorenporträt
Dear reader, I share with you these words, in case you were wondering about me. I was born in the Santiago, Chile of 1989, a big city in a valley surrounded by mountains and a country in the midst of important political and social changes. I was fortunate to grow up in a loving household composed by my mother, father, and younger sister. My academic interests developed into a triangle of sorts: natural sciences, literature and philosophy, and visual arts. I decided to study astronomy, as a way to try to understand the big picture and how our existence fits in it. I moved to Germany in 2016 to pursue a higher education. I hold a doctorate in astrophysics and currently work in the semiconductor industry. In my free time, I like playing video games, reading, writing, drawing, gardening, and daydreaming. At present, I live in Mannheim, Germany with my fiancé Ilja and my lovely cat Pamuk.
