Voyages to Vastness is the final book in Louis Combe’s epic Polaris Trilogy. In this volume, an ancient poet, Luc the Bard, reincarnates in the present day, observes the state of our woeful wounded would, and writes a new cosmology to offer hope to humankind.

Nine connected pantoum poems depict our travails on the river of life from birth to death. Each of us is accompanied by our moral compass, Polaris, who attempts to guide us to do right and good as we navigate life’s treacherous waters.

Luc the Bard assigns urgent tasks to our culture’s elders. They are urged to become elder thinkers, wise ones, and atone for the flawed thinking of ancient wise ones and their bards. Voyages to Vastness reveals how wise ones can rid themselves of imperfections by rethinking their religious beliefs and board the empyrean boat bound for vastness.
