LONGLISTED FOR THE BAILEY'S WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION 'A quietly
profound, humane tour de force' Guardian The beloved debut novel
that will restore your faith in humanity #SmallAngryPlanet When
Rosemary Harper joins the crew of the Wayfarer, she isn't expecting
much. The ship, which has seen better days, offers her everything
she could possibly want: a small, quiet spot to call home for a
while, adventure in far-off corners of the galaxy, and distance
from her troubled past. But Rosemary gets more than she bargained
for with the Wayfarer. The crew is a mishmash of species and
personalities, from Sissix, the friendly reptillian pilot, to Kizzy
and Jenks, the constantly sparring engineers who keep the ship
running. Life on board is chaotic, but more or less peaceful -
exactly what Rosemary wants. Until the crew are offered the job of
a lifetime: the chance to build a hyperspace tunnel to a distant
planet. They'll earn enough money to live comfortably for years...
if they survive the long trip through war-torn interstellar space
without endangering any of the fragile alliances that keep the
galaxy peaceful. But Rosemary isn't the only person on board with
secrets to hide, and the crew will soon discover that space may be
vast, but spaceships are very small indeed. PRAISE FOR THE
WAYFARERS 'Never less than deeply involving' DAILY MAIL 'Explores
the quieter side of sci-fi while still wowing us with daring leaps
of imagination' iBOOKS 'So much fun to read' HEAT 'Chambers is
simply an exceptional talent, quietly and beautifully redefining
the space opera' TOR.COM 'The most fun that I've had with a novel
in a long, long time' iO9
