Book Cover & Preview Text
We tend to consider the Universe in purely physical terms - we study it with the tools of astronomy, physics, chemistry, biology, mathematics and so forth. However, Cosmic Colossal breaks through the material to reveal a spiritual dimension to the Universe. In the novel, the spiritual and material overlap through the central character, Semester, being exiled to the Earth from her spirit abode. The appraisal of Sir Fred Hoyle's book, Man in the Universe, continues with the theme of the spiritual and material fusion of the Universe's different dimensions.

About the Book
Cosmic Colossal, the brainchild of Aishwarya Pandey, is a true roller coaster of a ride as it takes the reader on a journey through the spirit dimension of the universe. Semester, the central character in the novel, is exiled to the earth, and it is through this exile that the spiritual and physical aspects of the universe overlap with each other. The personalities of the story’s characters are well-developed to the extent that they help take the reader deep into the ethos of the plot. Whether the reader is a professional scientist or a sci-fi enthusiast, Cosmic Colossal, brings about an awareness that there is more to the universe than what is perceived by the senses. “As a complement to Cosmic Colossal, Francis A. Andrew has chosen to write an appraisal of Sir Fred Hoyle’s 1964 book entitled Man in the Universe. The parts of Hoyle’s book in which he discourses on the need for humankind to shift emphasis away from the material and on to the spiritual dovetails well with the setting of Cosmic Colossal.” – Siddhant Bahuguna
