About 10 years ago my sister read a science fiction novel, and wants to find it again. She read it about 10 years ago, but it could have been published any time before that, she doesn't remember if it was a recent publication. It possibly had the word "Pegasus" in the title. Plot below the fold
In her words:
"what i remember: it starts off with the main guy, and he's, like, a bum or whatever, his girlfriend left him, and his dad hates him, and so he signs up to go on an intergalactic mission to teraform somewhere really far away, never to see earth again. while on his way out of the solar system, the sun swallows up our galaxy. the spaceship is powered by these higher humans' brains, and one of them is a twin with someone who was on earth when it was swallowed up, and it causes some sort of problem because twins are psychically linked. and the dude's ex is on the ship with her new man and he ends up saving the day by figuring out how to travel faster than the speed of light" |
