Beschreibung
From the award-winning author of The Tea Master and the Detective comes a science fictional whirlwind romance against the background of a murder mystery...On a string of orbitals called the Scattered Pearls Belt lives Sunless Woods-sentient spaceship, master of disguise, and master thief who chafes against the obscurity that comes with her retirement. There, too, lives Van, a poor scholar with little confidence but plenty of heart, and whose income comes from tutoring a wealthy student.Their lives are turned upside down when Van finds a corpse in her student's quarters and Sunless Woods, intrigued by Van's sense of justice, offers her help. Scholar and spaceship must chase the mystery around the empire's forgotten edge: from rundown teahouses to ascetic havens, and even in the wreck of a spaceship-and all the while, they begin to fall for each other in earnest. But the secrets they've kept from each other are large and devastating-will they and their love survive the revelations?REVIEWS"e;With this lush, immersive sci-fi tale, de Bodard (The House of Sundering Flames) delves into a world as gritty as it is ethereal...
