Synopsis

What if the fundamental laws of thermodynamics could be used to prove the existence of a parallel universe-a twined realm where a single omnipotent consciousness is bonded by a force akin to love? There was a philosophical time in our humanity when religion and science were inseparable, but rivalry and discord has since driven a great argumentative chasm between the two. Author Leong Ying takes readers into this fascinating world, following a young man, Leo, on his quest to discover his own origins and learn the truths of the universe. Klystar is a gripping fable encompassing a bold scientific theory intended to bring healing to our conflicting souls. Readers will be captivated by Ying's detailed world of the future its connections to the past, learning with Leo that the proof is in the numbers, and the meaning is in the words.
