The Galaxy, and the Ground Within

Více o knize

Sunday Times bestselling author Becky Chambers returns to the Galactic Commons in the final installment of her acclaimed Wayfarers series. The planet Gora, devoid of water, air, and native life, serves as a mere stopover for ships navigating the wormholes of the Galactic Commons. Among its few establishments is the Five-Hop One-Stop, a rest stop for long-haul spacers to refuel and gather supplies. Managed by an enterprising alien and her occasionally helpful child, the Five-Hop aims to provide a sense of home to travelers. When a freak technological failure disrupts traffic to and from Gora, three strangers find themselves stranded at the Five-Hop. Grounded and with time to reflect, the trio—a displaced artist with an important appointment, a cargo runner at a life crossroads, and a mysterious figure aiding those on the fringes—must confront their pasts, contemplate their futures, and explore their connections with one another. PRAISE FOR THE WAYFARERS includes accolades from John Connolly, Andrew Caldecott, and the Guardian, highlighting Chambers' exceptional talent and her unique approach to space opera.
