Winner of N.N. Light's best Sci-Fi for 2019
I never thought I’d have a bounty on my head the size of the Milky Way.
Of course, I never thought I’d be able to bend time, either.
But hey, life is full of surprises.
Don’t get me wrong, feeling like a goddess has its perks, but those perks come with a hefty price. My brain is tapioca. I’m stranded in the middle of dead space. Ratters are using me for target practice, and a giant, cybernetic monster named Oscar is trying to make me his chew toy.
All this because I played superhero (or thief, according to some) and snatched a doomsday device from an intergalactic mobster.
So if I don’t make it out of here alive, remember this:
Above all else, I want a Viking funeral.
If you love action-packed sci-fi, fast-paced space operas, or simply think a snarky girl scouring the galaxy for precious artifacts with a gigantic intergalactic tiger at her side sounds like it could be a lot of fun, then this is the book for you.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
An archaeological quest turns into a time-traveling fight for survival in Surlak-Ramsey's witty and thrilling debut. On a distant planet, Dakota Adams hopes that she'll hit the jackpot and find something the Progenitors left behind or the Vela, a legendary spaceship that's been missing for 500 years. What she finds is the Vela's colony ship, its flight data recorder, a mysterious cube, and a whole lot of trouble. Hoping to unlock the data recorder, Dakota heads to a shady club owner and antiques collector named Pizlow. After a double-cross by Pizlow, Dakota escapes with her friend Tolby, a pilot, and the chase begins to find the Vela and its secrets. Once Dakota is on board the Vela and learns that the cube she possesses is an artifact that transports the user through time and space, she leaps forward and back attempting to save herself and Tolby from the ship's imminent destruction. Surlak-Ramsey sets a frenetic pace, weaves in a couple intriguing subplots, and handles time-travel paradoxes well. Some of the comedic scenes feel familiar, but the edge-of-your-seat action keeps readers engaged. This is a strong debut that launches a promising series.
