In the Shadow of the Ship - Aliette de Bodard - Bog

Bag om In the Shadow of the Ship

Aliette de Bodard adds to her acclaimed Xuya Universe with a brand new novella, In the Shadow of the Ship. Nightjar, sentient ship and family matriarch, looms large in Khuyên's past. Disappearances drove teenage Khuyên from it, but death will steer her back. Now an adult and a magistrate, Khuyên came for her maternal grandmother's funeral but finds herself unwittingly reliving her past on the decaying Nightjar. Children are still disappearing as her childhood friends once did; and worse, her beloved Cousin Anh vanishes after pleading for her help. Khuyên sets out to save Anh alongside Thảo, a beautiful and mysterious woman who seems to know more than she should about Khuyên and the ship. But saving Anh requires doing what Khuyên couldn't do before: face her family, face the ship, face her own hopes and fears for the future--a future that might well include Thảo, but only if Khuyên can stop listening to the critical voice in her head. A voice that sounds an awful lot like Nightjar's...
