Covid Galaxy

Are we alone in the universe?
At a time when Earth is ravaged by a viral pandemic and world leaders struggle to save humanity from extinction, astronaut and accidental tourist William Preston adventures into the multiverse on an important mission for the Janus, the all-seeing interstellar detectives. Plucked from his post aboard the space station during a solar storm and thrust unknowingly into other timelines, William fears insanity or the ill effects of radiation until the Janus reveal themselves in a close encounter of the fifth kind. Could Covid have come from outer space? William is set to find out as he pursues the intergalactic criminal Fermion, who is wanted for stealing an eleventh-dimensional galaxy from the Klabyau. In exchange for his help, the Janus promise to locate William’s missing wife and love of his life, Maia, who vanished in a freak incident in the New York subway. In the course of his travels, William discovers other beings and other worlds that are also battling a crippling virus. In a spectacular conclusion orchestrated by the Janus and Klabyau, a new day dawns, the trapped Covid souls are freed, and William and Maia are reunited in a wondrous new existence.
