{"product_id":"a-congress-of-ships-stephen-graham-king-9781987963472","title":"A Congress of Ships","description":"In a desolate system on the outer edge of Pan Galactum, the skin of the universe has ruptured, tearing open a portal to an alternate reality. Witnessed only by the sentient science vessel N'Dea, a massive, battered ship falls through, housing a community of refugees fleeing an enemy that has pursued them across the cold reaches of space for decades.But have they come alone?Summoned by N'Dea while en route from a reunion with dear friends on the Galactum's capital, the mystery is a lure that fellow Artificial Sentience, the Maverick Heart, cannot resist. It's now up to Vrick, along with humans Keene, Lexa-Blue and Ember, and allies old and new, to come to the aid of this ship of lost souls. Together they must find a way to seal the breach for good, before a ravening hunger can spill through and rip the Galactum apart.\"Stephen Graham King's Maverick Heart Cycle is the queer Firefly-meets-Killjoys series I always wanted, with the added bonus of his seemingly effortless world-building, clever plots, and themes of chosen family and \"no one left behind\" that bring me back every time. Trust me: go get squishy.\"Nathan Burgoine, author of Light and Exit Plans for Teenage Freaks\"Stephen Graham King is a master builder of worlds, from the organic to the technical, and he fills them with wonderfully complex characters who just have that cool factor. The entire series is a must-read.\"Cait Gordon, author of Life in the 'Cosm and The Stealth Lovers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephen Graham King\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1987963474\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781987963472\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Renaissance\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/22\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.69d","brand":"Stephen Graham King","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44057720717567,"sku":"9781987963472","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c923e3dc-342d-42e9-9eaa-f8717a2e51df.jpg?v=1685048545","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-congress-of-ships-stephen-graham-king-9781987963472","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
