Entertaining, novel read

I liked this book. I read it years ago, and recently reread it. I thought it was an enjoyable read. It is 200 pages long, and goes pretty fast, and it had novel ideas. The aliens have come to earth looking for a yellow eyed human, and they find one. The story sort of goes on a roller coaster from there.

Ice ages, supernovas, genetic engineering, galactic empires.

In the 1990s, the Earth plunges into an Ice Age. Aliens come to rescue us, but really come to search for a person with golden eyes whose chromosomes contain the secret of how to blow up a star, encoded into his genes by a genetic engineer 35,000 years ago... A zillion wild ideas thrown at you machine gun style...a wild ride for a sci-fi-fan!
