A Big Ship at the Edge of the Universe

A hunt for a legendary warship brings together people with very different reasons to stay alive. Racer Nilah’s privileged world collapses when she witnesses a killing and finds herself pursued. Boots, a veteran surviving through dubious treasure maps, is drawn into the same widening danger. Their paths converge with a crew of outsiders whose search promises both extraordinary rewards and enemies prepared to kill for them. Technology and magic shape the risks of a universe where the lost ship could become a devastating weapon. Amid uneasy alliances and escalating conflict, Nilah also develops a charged connection with the crew’s quartermaster Orna. Survival requires learning whom to trust beyond the limits of familiar lives.
