I mean, in several models, including the current most-likely one (last I heard) it effectively is finite. Eventually no new planets or stars can get created, and then some time after that, no atoms can exist. Will the "universe" e

Lord of Light is worth it if you can manage. I remember I bounced off a few times too. It's rather hard to believe it's the same author as Amber sometimes, those books took me like 12 seconds to get hooked on, LoL is great it'
