Alchemy is not what it seems. And that’s about to become a serious problem for the Sight Institute.

Imagine. You’re about to quit the job that has consumed you for nearly a decade. You no longer want to be known as just another alchemist, and you’re ready to leave the burden of secrets that come with the world’s most restrictive science behind.

You don’t want to live in fear of lethal accidents anymore, and you don’t want to be dragged away from them as the only survivor.

Not even the promise of prestige and more knowledge about the secret laws of the universe that were rattled by a group of philosophers known as ‘the Five’ almost a century ago could convince you. You’ve heard it all before.

Your name is Frederich Hawken and you’re ready to knock on the door of your mentor’s office to hand in your notice.

Too bad that the people who hold your fate in their hands have other plans for you.

And so does the Universe of Infinite Wonder.

The Universe of Infinite Wonder is an ongoing series about young scientists who find themselves working for the world’s most prestigious research institute just as the world approaches the precipice of progress that could either elevate it or destroy it for good.

You like that? Great.

Then let me tell you about the protagonists: 

Frederich? A general danger to himself and others. 

Adriel? Give him a problem and he’ll make it everyone’s problem. 

Elodie? A semblance of compassion until met with ambition. 

Soraya? Nothing but layers upon layers of lies. 

These are the people you’re trusting with changing the world for the better. Have fun.
