The Gods Themselves by Isaac Asimov

In a tale of science fiction that explores the consequences of unchecked technological advancement, the story unfolds across parallel universes, where a seemingly miraculous energy exchange between Earth and a parallel world inhabited by strange, energy-based life forms promises an endless supply of power. However, this gift comes at a potentially catastrophic cost. A physicist discovers that the exchange could lead to the destruction of both universes due to the differing physical laws governing them. The narrative weaves through the perspectives of humans and alien beings as they grapple with the moral and existential implications of their actions, ultimately questioning the very nature of progress and the ethical responsibilities of scientific discovery.
