“A repo man!” she interrupted.<\/p>

“More a professional finder,” he said. “But essentially, yes.”<\/p>

She appeared at the edge of his light, grinning, holding out a bright gloved hand. “I’m Mattie Vahn. Mother Vahn to most folk.”<\/p>

“Fergus Ferguson,” he said, shaking it. “Pleased to meet you.”<\/p>

“Mr. Ferguson,” she said, and he liked the old-fashioned tone she said it with. “I suggest you finish sealing up. I’m going to short the airlock.”<\/p>

“You’re what?”<\/p>

“I’m getting out of this trap,” she said. “You coming?”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Fergus Ferguson calls himself a finder, but he has been called a lot of names: Thief, con artist, repo man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He’s coming to the deep space colony, Cernee, to find the spaceship Venetia’s Sword <\/em>and repossess it from Arum Gilger, ex-nobleman turned power hungry criminal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What he thought was a relatively easy job quickly turns hard and nasty. He has barely arrived, when he finds himself very lucky to survive a coldblooded murder of a fellow passenger in a cable car to Central Station in the middle of Cernee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soon, he is in the middle of a war for power between criminal factions and the local authorities. He gets some help from the Vahn family – a family of cloned women. The situation escalates, aliens become involved – and we are off to the races.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FINDER is Suzanne Palmer’s first novel. She won the 2018 Hugo Award for Best Novelette “The Secret Life of Bots”, and has won several other awards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides being a very interesting Space Opera, Suzanne Palmer’s world-building is superb, her writing smooth, flowing and easy to read – and her characters really makes you want to know more about them. And this book is also a lot of fun – not to be missed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even though the book stands alone just fine, lucky for us it is the first in a series. The next one is due in May 2020, so we don’t have long to wait. I loved everything about this book and the next one is already at the top of my reading list.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
