A small crew of misfits goes on what they hope is an adventure into space . . . They'll discover more than they bargained for - including found-family, love and sentient moss. For fans of Becky Chambers' cosy science fiction adventures, Martha Well's Murderbot and those who loved Red Dwarf and Firefly.
This is a fabulously cosy adventure from Rebecca Thorne featuring shenanigans in space and how it feels to find friendship and family.
The journey is more important than the destination β which is great, because they're definitely lost.
Torian Razner finally bought a starship, and contrary to Amelia's assessment, it was not "a meteoric sign of stupidity". Sure, the alien starship may have been abandoned for a century, and it may be covered in moss now... but it's Torian's ticket to freedom, regardless of what her ex... ah, captain... said.
Except Torian's first flight reveals a surprise passenger: the moss is actually an organic computer with a snarky attitude and serious abandonment issues. The target of its loathing? The immortal alien who built it (and then parked the starship, with Moss inside, and forgot about it). The same alien who just found Torian and accused her of "stealing" the ship.
It's entirely possible that Amelia was right about this meteoric stupidity.
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.
