The shady crew of the White Raven run freight and salvage at the fringes of our solar system. They discover the wreck of a centuries-?old exploration vessel floating light years away from its intended destination and revive its sole occupant, who wakes with news of First Alien Contact. When the crew break it to her that humanity has alien allies already, she reveals that these are very different extra-terrestrials… and the gifts they bestowed on her could kill all humanity, or take it out to the most distant stars.

Industry Reviews

"Fun, funny, pacy, thought-provoking and very clever space opera - a breath of fresh air."
"Ridiculously fun with a well-thought-out space opera setting and lots of fancy reveals, and most of all a nice romance between two women who are there for each other when the alien brain spiders start swarming."
"Pratt's worldbuilding fascinates, and the plot serves up action and big ideas in equally tasty helpings. This is definitely a series to watch."
"I don't use the word "rollicking" often, but it applies here."
