About the product

A warm, comforting, big-hearted stand-alone set in the same world as the award-winning The Long way to Small Angry Planet.

Lovelace was once merely a ship's artificial intelligence. When she wakes up in an new body, following a total system shut-down and reboot, she has to start over in a synthetic body, in a world where her kind are illegal. She's never felt so alone.
But she's not alone, not really. Pepper, one of the engineers who risked life and limb to reinstall Lovelace, is determined to help her adjust to her new world. Because Pepper knows a thing or two about starting over.

Together, Pepper and Lovey will discover that, huge as the galaxy may be, it's anything but empty.

Our edition of A Closed and Common Orbit by Becky Chambers features:

  • Exclusive covers with holographic foil on naked hardbacks
  • Digital edges
  • Signed by the author

'Joyously written and a joy to read.' ― Claire North

'Warm, engaging, properly science-fictional, A Closed and Common Orbit is a very likable novel indeed.' -The Guardian
