Product details

From the winner of the Prix Julia-Prolongator 2017 at the Utopiales SFF Festival in Nantes, this remarkable self-published debut novel is described by The Guardian as "a quietly profound, human masterpiece." It is on the shortlist for the Arthur C. Clarke Award, nominated for the Kitschies Golden Tentacle, and is on the longlist for the Bailey's Women's Prize for Fiction 2016.

When Rosemary Harper joins the crew of the Wayfarer, she doesn't expect much. The Wayfarer, a patched-up ship that has seen better days, offers her everything she could wish for: a small, quiet place to call home for a while, adventures in distant corners of the galaxy, and a break from her troubled past. However, Rosemary gets more than she bargained for with the Wayfarer. The crew is a colorful mix of different species and personalities, from Sissix, the friendly reptilian pilot, to Kizzy and Jenks, the constantly bickering engineers who keep the ship running. Life on board is anything but ordinary.
