THE MAN WHO BRIDGED THE VOID

Résumé du livre

The Man Who Bridged The Void

Gods create the universe. Engineers fix the design flaws.

Trilok Chand does not believe in miracles. He believes in Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC), the Schedule of Rates, and the absolute authority of the Public Works Department (PWD). When a rogue landslide on the Shimla-Kalka highway sends him to an early grave, Trilok expects oblivion. Instead, he finds himself standing on the edge of the Void—a massive, unbridged chasm separating the Upper Realms from the Netherworld.

The bridge is out. The ferry is broken. And there is a backlog of four billion souls waiting to cross. For Trilok, this isn't a tragedy; it's a Project.

Armed with a clipboard and a "No-Objection Certificate" from the Lord of Death, Trilok sets out to do the impossible: build a four-lane highway across the abyss. Along the way, he must unionize grumbling demons, negotiate with unhelpful angels, and survive a "Stop-Work Notice" from the Divine Architect because the bridge isn't "pretty" enough.

Note: While part of the Divine Bureaucracy series, this book is a complete standalone story and can be enjoyed without having read previous volumes.
