A thought-provoking new YA space adventure from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Star Wars: Ahsoka.

Set on a family-run interstellar freighter called the Harland and a mysterious remote space station, E. K. Johnston's latest is story of survival and self-determination.

Pendt Harland family sees her as a waste of food on their long-haul space cruiser when her genes reveal an undesirable mutation, but if she plays her cards right she might have a chance to do much more than survive. During the layover at the space dock, Pendt escapes and forms a lucky bond with the Brannick twins, the teenage heirs of the powerful family that owns the space station. Against long odds, the trio hatches a long-shot scheme to take over the station and thwart the destinies they never wished for.

Industry Reviews

E. K. Johnston writes books that are simultaneously gentle and devastating, and I'm not sure how she does it but I'm so glad she does.--Kiersten White, New York Times bestselling author of And I Darken

E. K. Johnston's Aetherbound is a powerful and gorgeous story of a character who makes her own self, family, and future. I loved it completely.--Kat Howard, Alex Award-winning author of An Unkindness of Magicians

Compelling and thoughtful, stark and bright, brimming with heart and rebellion, Aetherbound is the space opera you didn't know you needed and a beautiful reminder that the tendrils of hope can grow in even the darkest, hardest world. This book is a gift and a balm.--Delilah S. Dawson, New York Times bestselling author of Star Wars: Phasma

I always enjoy found-family stories and the acceptance and love that Pendt finds in Aetherbound satisfies tremendously. Poignant themes surrounding bodily autonomy, human trafficking, and colonialism in space remind us that we must wrestle with these problems now. Looking forward to more adventures with Pendt the gene mage!--Kevin Hearne, author of the Iron Druid Chronicles and Star Wars: Heir to the Jedi

A masterful blend of magic, genetics, and interstellar relations in a tale that is as sharp as it is tender, as much a critique as it is an adventure. A true battle cry of a book!--Natalie C. Parker, author of the Seafire Trilogy
