Publisher's Synopsis
In The Devine Equation, Lance Overman presents a mesmerizing fusion of science fiction, metaphysical exploration, and human redemption. Jaxon Keller, once a culinary prodigy celebrated for his precision and artistic mastery, finds his life unraveling under the weight of addiction. What was once a carefully orchestrated symphony of flavors and innovation becomes an entropic descent into chaos. Lost in the haze of substances and personal failure, Jaxon faces an existential crisis that threatens to extinguish the genius he once wielded with such grace.
Then, in a moment both violent and sublime, Jaxon is struck by lightning-a cosmic event that irreversibly alters his perception of reality. As he emerges from this near-death experience, Jaxon begins to perceive the hidden mathematical patterns that govern the universe. These fractal designs, at once intricate and infinite, are not merely abstract concepts; they manifest in everything around him, from the physical world to his culinary creations. Every dish he prepares becomes an expression of the universe's deepest truths, every flavor a reflection of the cosmic order. But Jaxon's journey is not just one of personal redemption. It is a quest to reconcile the chaos of his addiction with the profound realization that the same forces shaping the universe also shape his life. In his kitchen, Jaxon rediscovers the delicate balance between creation and destruction, between order and disorder. Through his newfound understanding of fractal geometry and universal symmetries, Jaxon seeks not only to reclaim his lost genius but also to unlock the mysteries of existence itself. The Devine Equation is a visionary novel that transcends genres, blending speculative fiction with philosophical inquiry. It is a story of a man seeking to rebuild his life through an understanding of the universe's most profound laws-laws that reveal themselves in the art of creation, in the mathematics of chaos, and in the patterns of life itself. Lance Overman takes readers on an intellectually stimulating and emotionally charged journey through the intersections of science, art, and the metaphysical.
