He prefers the term \u003ci\u003efinder\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e His latest job should be simple. Find the spacecraft \u003ci\u003eVenetia's Sword\u003c\/i\u003e and steal it back from Arum Gilger, ex-nobleman turned power-hungry trade boss. He'll slip in, decode the ship's compromised AI security, and get out of town, \u003ci\u003eSword\u003c\/i\u003e in hand. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Fergus locates both Gilger and the ship in the farthest corner of human-inhabited space, a backwater deep space colony called Cernee. But Fergus' arrival at the colony is anything but simple. A cable car explosion launches Cernee into civil war, and Fergus must ally with Gilger's enemies to navigate a field of space mines and a small army of hostile mercenaries. What was supposed to be a routine job evolves into negotiating a power struggle between factions. Even worse, Fergus has become increasingly--and inconveniently--invested in the lives of the locals. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e It doesn't help that a dangerous alien species Fergus thought mythical prove unsettlingly real, and their ominous triangle ships keep following him around. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Foolhardy. Eccentric. Reckless. Whatever he's called, Fergus will need all the help he can get to take back the \u003ci\u003eSword \u003c\/i\u003eand maybe save Cernee from destruction in the process.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-16596471\"\u003eSuzanne Palmer\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Daw Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/31\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Mass Market Paperbound\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.60h x 4.10w x 1.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780756416355\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0756416353\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC028090\"\u003eScience Fiction | Alien Contact\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC028010\"\u003eScience Fiction | Action \u0026amp; Adventure\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC028030\"\u003eScience Fiction | Space Opera\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSuzanne Palmer\u003c\/b\u003e is an award-winning and acclaimed writer of science fiction.
