Colonizing hundreds of planets with transgenic \"parahumans\" using technology that seemed like magic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd then the wormholes collapsed, taking the Federation with them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow colonies struggle to survive, free of their imperialist overlords but bereft of the technology they provided. Fabricators and medical nanotech alike failed with the Federation's network. Former admirals turned pirate warlords prey upon defenseless worlds. Unrestrained corporations suck planets dry of resources. And mysterious probes wander the depths of space.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut hope is not lost, the wrecks of Federal starships and abandoned stations hold the promise of advanced technologies that could alleviate hunger or unlock the stars again, in the right hands. If you're brave enough to chance the dangers of radiation leaks, malfunctioning robots, or the dreaded Kessler cascade you may bring back great riches. You may find anything from a laser rifle to a technomage's staff that might as well be magic to you. If you're lucky you might even find a ship that you can patch up with scrap\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joel Kreissman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798232040147\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Joel Kreissman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/03\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.37d","brand":"Joel Kreissman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47637527363839,"sku":"9798232040147","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e8f75a52-c06c-481c-9517-34096efd7d5b.jpg?v=1765116728","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/scavenger-joel-kreissman-9798232040147","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
