Über diesen Titel

 'Smart, bold and so much fun . . . I'm officially a member of the Grace Curtis fan club' AMIE KAUFMAN

The Grand Budapest Hotel in space, Floating Hotel is a hopeful story of misfits, rebels and found family, perfect for fans of Becky Chambers, Martha Wells and Aliette de Bodard.

Welcome to the Grand Abeona Hotel: home of the finest food, the sweetest service, and the very best views the galaxy has to offer. Year round it moves from planet to planet, system to system, pampering guests across the furthest reaches of the milky way. The last word in sub-orbital luxury - and a magnet for intrigue. Intrigues such as:

Why are there love poems in the lobby intray?

How many Imperial spies are currently on board?

What is the true purpose of the Problem Solver's conference?

And perhaps most pertinently - who is driving the ship?

At the centre of these mysteries stands Carl, one time stowaway, longtime manager, devoted caretaker to the hotel. It's the love of his life and the only place he's ever called home. But as forces beyond Carl's comprehension converge on the Abeona, he has to face one final question: when is it time to let go?

PRAISE FOR GRACE CURTIS
Curtis oozes charm and humour
Delightfully inventive
Smart, bold and so much fun . . . I'm officially a member of the Grace Curtis fan club
An absolute marvel to behold!
PRAISE FOR FLOATING HOTEL
A beautiful novel, magnificently told. Floating Hotel is a story of love, gentle rebellion and mystery pulled through a ragtag bunch of outstanding and dangerous misfits who have all found their way to the stars. Curtis is a master of turning the screw of the story tighter with each page as she inexorably takes us through the lives of the characters to the centre of political intrigue and danger. You will turn every page hoping for one hundred more
This book was a joy to read. It was beautiful and clever, sad and hopeful, subtle and profoundly moving all at once. Grace Curtis has written a novel dripping with humane observation and brilliant craft, weaving together a story that catches you by the heart, even as it pulls you across the galaxy. It is both a heartbreak and a hug in a book; an awesome achievement
Bittersweet and breathtaking, with evocative prose and a scope that's somehow both intimate and galaxy-spanning, FLOATING HOTEL is like the Abeona itself. It invites you to enjoy its atmospheric and multi-layered story and lovable cast at your leisure-and the deeper you get, the less willing you are to let it go. Grace Curtis has a new fan for life!
A funny, humane, and sneaky novel-Floating Hotel is intricate and welcoming as the Grand Abonea around which it revolves, a treasured space in a treacherous universe. Theirs, I mean. Ours too
Curtis has done it again - delivering a high stakes slice of life novel that's bleeding with heart. The underbelly of the Abeona hotel may be rotting with secrets, but like the guests, you'll be too dazzled by its effortless charm to notice. If you read one sci-fi novel this year, make it this one
When I'm rich I'm booking a tour on the Grand Abeona Hotel. Grace Curtis's ability to populate that wonderful, crumbling old relic with characters you really come to love is absolutely exceptional, and Floating Hotel is a joy from arrival to check-out. Mine's a martini, Carl!
Quietly incredible - a constellation of lives, each rendered with warmth and wit, building up a picture of connection, sanctuary, and resistance. The kind of book I want to live in
It is here that Curtis's second novel shines, with the quirky wit of a Wes Anderson film and a deeply grounded and human sense of the importance of found family, this lovable adventure through space seems to be anything other than distant

Die Geschichte macht Spaß! Werde es definitiv nochmal hören, auch wenn mir die Sprecherin ein wenig zu eintönig war.

Hörenswert!

Don't let the slow start put you off this amazing story with profound depth in its characters, its philosophy and ideas and general plot. You wont even notice half the things being set up before they pay of and the final mystery was a joy to try and solve. 100% recommended.

Quietly amazing, intelligent and queer
