One Word Kill by Mark Lawrence

Brief synopsis (no spoilers):

(I'm taking this from Amazon, because I didn't get far before I quit reading.) "Prodigy son of a famed mathematician, Nick Hayes is not your average fifteen-year-old. Especially when you consider that he has just discovered he is dying of leukemia. But when an alluring new girl, Mia, joins his group of Dungeons & Dragons–playing friends, he realizes that life might be giving him one last throw of the dice. Just then, however, his world is turned upside down when he meets a strangely familiar man whose claims about Nick’s future are too harrowing—and unbelievable—to ignore. Soon everything he thought was true, from the laws of physics to the trajectory of his own life, is proved otherwise."
