May it be by outsmarting the enemy and outrunning the galaxy in an attempt to save the Earth during an intergalactic warfare - as in Charlie Jane Anders’ Victories Greater Than Death - or by hopping through the galaxies and returning treasures that have the power to stop (and start) wars - as in SM Wilson’s The Infinity Files, there are many ways to save the universe, sometimes from itself!
