<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"The first book in this ... science fiction adventure series follows a ragtag group of adventurers as they try to find a legendary ship that just might be the key to clearing their name and saving the universe"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>A crew of outcasts tries to find a legendary ship before it falls into the hands of those who would use it as a weapon in this science fiction adventure series for fans of The Expanse and <i>Firefly.</i></b> <p/>A washed-up treasure hunter, a hotshot racer, and a deadly secret society. <p/>They're all on a race against time to hunt down the greatest warship ever built. Some think the ship is lost forever, some think it's been destroyed, and some think it's only a legend, but one thing's for certain: whoever finds it will hold the fate of the universe in their hands. And treasure that valuable can never stay hidden for long. . .<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><i>A Big Ship at the Edge of the Universe </i>is a raucous genre-buster that careens through a series of hear-stopping curves and roars to a podium finish. Bratty, brilliant racer Nilah and hard-boiled cynic Boots are as winning a pair of strong female characters as I've met in years. A pacy plot, a diverse supporting cast, and a vivid set of worlds round out this highly entertaining series opener. Alex White is going to be leading the pack for years to come.<br>--<i><b>Claire Humphrey, author of Spells of Blood and Kin</b></i><br><br><i>A Big Ship at the Edge of the Universe </i>is perfectly paced, full of intense, inventive action and refreshingly honest characters. It's the seamless hybrid of fantasy and sci-fi that you didn't know you always needed. Do you miss <i>Firefly</i>? Do you want it back? Well, sorry, not gonna happen. But this book is damn close.--<i><b>Nicholas Eames, author of Kings of the Wyld</b></i><br><br><i>A Big Ship at the Edge of the Universe </i>starts in high gear and never lets up. Boasting action, intrigue and deadly fusions of technology and magic, you have to remember to put the book down now and then to take a breath!<br>--<i><b>Mike Brooks, author of Dark Run</b></i><br><br><i>A Big Ship at the Edge of the Universe</i> is a rollicking fun ride. I enjoyed it a lot, and I'm looking forward to the sequel, <i>A Bad Deal for the Whole Galaxy</i>.--<i><b>Locus</b></i><br><br>[T]his ambitious start...combines magic and space opera to create a fast-paced adventure with charismatic characters and formidable enemies in a realized universe of greed and power.--<i><b>Booklist</b></i><br><br>A clever fusion of magic and sci-fi makes this book a total blast. I was hooked from page one.--<i><b>V. E. Schwab, author of the Shades of Magic series</b></i><br><br>A crazy blend of SF and fantasy concepts, with exciting characters and a brilliant universe - highly recommend!--<i><b>Jamie Sawyer, author of The Lazarus Wars series</b></i><br><br>An exciting, fast-paced, magic-fueled treasure hunt across the galaxy.<br>--<i><b>Corey J. White, author of the Voidwitch series</b></i><br><br>Racing! Treasure and smuggling! <i>A Big Ship at the Edge of the Universe</i> is a gripping quest for justice among salvage and magic--I really loved it.<br>--<i><b>Mur Lafferty, author of Six Wakes</b></i><br><br>This universe's thrilling combination of technology and magic traps two tough women in a fight for their lives, and although Nilah has a better life to fight for, Boots is marvelously stubborn. Guaranteed to make you wonder what kind of sigil you'd draw in their world.--<i><b>R. E. Stearns, author of Barbary Station</b></i><br><br>To call this book fast-paced or action-packed is underselling it. Buckle up, readers: this is a ride you won't want to get off until the end.--<i><b>B&N Sci-fi & Fantasy Blog</b></i><br><br>White's assured debut is an entertaining throwback with some fun worldbuilding and two great lead characters.--<i><b>Publishers Weekly</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Alex White</b> was born and raised in the American South.
