From #1 New York Times bestselling author of Star Wars: Ahsoka comes a fast-paced queer space opera that combines Arthurian myth and the history of North Atlantic fisheries to create a one-of-a-kind world.

“Full of heart and hope, this book invites you to join a found family you’ll never want to leave.”—Amie Kaufman, New York Times bestselling author of Aurora Rising

“This short space opera covers a surprising amount of lore and worldbuilding in a queer-normative society accepting of Morgan’s asexual identity.”—BCCB

Morgan Enni has things to do. A science prodigy in a university full of mage-scientists, she’s notable for having no magical ability, which only increases her ambition and drive to prove herself. Her research has the potential to devastate every aetherworker in the galaxy and shake the crumbled foundations of the Stavenger Empire. It’s no wonder she can’t find anyone who wants to listen to her, much less fund her expedition.

But Morgan is stubborn, and eventually her work catches the attention of a group of rebels, who hope it might turn the tide in their favor. When they try to recruit the young scientist, they get much more than they bargained for. Morgan Enni has secrets of her own.

Kritikerstimmen

“Full of heart and hope, this book invites you to join a found family you'll never want to leave. A fierce but gentle reminder of the ways we can always choose who we'll be.”—Amie Kaufman, New York Times bestselling author of Aurora Rising

“Beautiful character work, lightness, precision… and hope.”—Reactor

“Chock-full of space battles and forms a solid companion . . . Space opera mixed with resilience and determination in an upended world.”Kirkus Reviews

“Morgan’s growth as a character over such a short novel is impressive as she realizes the importance of connection, especially when you’re reliant on networks andcompanionship to survive. Set within the world of Aetherbound (2021), the story's hidden secret related to the previous work will entrance readers, especially those familiar with Johnston’s work.”Booklist

“This short space opera covers a surprising amount of lore and worldbuilding in a queer-normative society accepting of Morgan’s asexual identity, with a creative magic system and interesting technology to boot . . . There’s plenty of intrigue . . . [G]eneral sci-fi aficionados and readers of the previous book have plenty to peruse here withlovable characters and a fascinating universe.”BCCB

“As a fully developed character, Morgan is the novel’s greatest strength . . . Recommended for libraries with fans of Aetherbound or Johnston’s ‘Star Wars’ novels.”School Library Journal

“A space fantasy that combines Arthurian myth and the history of North Atlantic fisheries — two things I bet you didn’t think could combine to compellingeffect, but here we are! For readers of queer sci-fi/fantasy tales.”—Autostraddle

“[An] action-packed and humorous novel that is easy to get into. Detailed world-building will help you completely get immersed in the novel, as well asunique concepts and worlds. I am all for it!”—Fully Booked

“[E.K. Johnston’s] Aetherbound novels are space fantasy drawing inspiration from Arthuriana, so another adventure from that universe sounds like an excellent summer read.”—Literary Hub
