H.H. MAIZER
The Enigma of Karma: The Fermi Paradox
Book Three of The Reaper's Dharma · H.H. Maizer
What if we were never being watched — only cultivated?
Thirty minutes after the hatch closed, Fred Rainier is still thirty feet away and still unreachable. Above him: the director who sent him in, a general with no authority this far out, and a Buddhist nun who was the only person the craft ever answered — until it stopped answering. Forty days pass. And when the craft opens again, what comes out is not the question anyone on that rig prepared for.
Karma is a law before it is a machine. Both of them are still counting.
