The Han like to say, "May you live in boring days."

EPHEMERAL is the third volume of THE TRIALS OF QUENTIN MAURUS, and these are not boring days. The tempo of life is growing quicker now. Distant tragedies deliver concrete, immediate effects. But there are greater dangers than war between ancients foes. When faced with external threats, great nations inevitably turn on their own people, and nobody will be spared, and that's true for all of us.

Quentin Maurus' world is shattering, and in the midst of these troubles, he fights to maintain his life. But of course his life is peculiarly complicated. Lovers and an exotic, part-time wife demand his attentions, and he has a family divided by old wounds, and he continues working in a sweatshop that somehow has become his family too.

And in the midst of every difficulty, science continues to offer up amazing visions of a universe great beyond measure.
