An ancient empire that began millions of years ago and spread across dozens of galaxies. An empire where the all-powerful emperor divides power between ancient clans, united in clans and dictating their will to him. Where science has gone so far forward that people are almost immortal, and wealth and luxury coexist with lawlessness and poverty. Where one law reigns - the law of force, where you are nobody if the power of the clan is not behind you, and even that is not always able to protect you from death if you are not able to protect yourself. Where life and death are separated by one wrong word, spoken to the wrong person. Will an earthling who accidentally finds himself there find his place in it, and will he have the willpower to start a new life there? This is what the second book in the “Stairway of God” series is about.
