Azura Ghost by Essa Hansen
'THIS IS THE SPACE OPERA YOU'VE BEEN WAITING FOR' Micah Dean Hicks 'A KILLER STORY WITH REAL HEART AND SOUL' Alastair Reynolds on Nophek Gloss One man and his sentient starship are all that stand between the multiverse and its total destruction in the second book of Essa Hansen's brilliant, mind-bending space opera trilogy. Caiden has been on the run for ten years in order to keep his Graven ship out of the hands of his old adversary, Threi. But when a childhood friend he once thought dead reappears to take it, he is lured into a game of hunter and hunted with the one person whose powers rival Threi's: his sister, Abriss. Now, to have a fighting chance against the most influential siblings in the multiverse, Caiden is left with no choice. He must unlock the Azura's true potential - which means finally confronting his own mysterious genetic origins. 'A work of dazzling imagination, lyrically written and shot through with deep empathy. A triumph in every sense' Gautam Bhatia, author of The Wall 'A blistering crash through bubble universes, seas of the luminous dead and sleeping alien cities. Liquid-crystal starships, living machines, reality-cleaving swordplay and a dynasty whose words command your synapses and cells' Micah Dean Hicks, author of Break the Bodies, Haunt the Bones 'Unpredictable and strikingly unique, Azura Ghost is science fiction without any limits to its imagination.
