Fabulously cosy adventure from bestselling author Rebecca Thorne, featuring shenanigans in space, a sentient starship and the feeling of finding home.
Her starship gave her freedom.
But could it also become a friend?
Torian thought she was getting a bargain: a century-old alien starship, abandoned and covered in moss. It was her ticket away from a smuggling past and her overbearing ex . . . ah, ex-captain, Amelia. But the moss has a mind of its own.
As the ship's 'organic computer,' Moss is lonely, snarky and harbouring serious abandonment issues. And when Torian journeys onward, she encounters the immortal alien who built the craft, then just left it behind - with Moss inside. The ship he's now accusing Torian of stealing. Charting a new course across the galaxy, Torian finds an unexpected ally in Amelia, who might help her find the safe haven she craves. Torian can pilot a starship. But can she uncover ancient secrets and connect with a computer that just wants to belong?
If you love Firefly's adventures in space, the loveable alien cast of Mass Effect and the coziness of Legends & Lattes, this is for you.
