Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Stranded in the dark.

In the final throes of the generations-long war with the alien Felen, smuggler Jereth Keeven's junk freighter breaks down in a strange rift in deep space, with little chance of rescue—until they encounter a science vessel that claims to be from 152 years in the future. Engineer Uma Ozakka has always been fascinated with the past, especially the desperate peace mission that ended the war with the Felen and ushered in a new age of collaboration—a mission Keeven's first mate, Leesongronski, is supposed to be leading right now. If Ozakka is right, more than the fates of two ships hangs in the balance....

An engaging and Uplifting Sci-fi novel

A bit of Becky Chambers crossed with Peter F. Hamilton with a smattering of Dennis E. Taylor. It is fast paced and compelling with relatable, flawed characters. Time travel and space opera blend without getting to heavy. It is inclusive and compassionate. Ren Hutchings is a unique and talented author, I can’t wait to read their next work.

Fantastic debut

A debut novel of friendship, time travel and mystery. Highly recommended for fans of Becky Chambers and its also refreshing that its a standalone. Would love more adventures though.

great story

Great story, female narrator was excellent. It took a little time to hook me in but was very engaging once the story got going.
