Heavy Ice

For six hundred and fifty years, the lost colony of Requite has had no contact with the wider universe. Now, a wanted criminal makes a forced landing on Requite – and is taken prisoner by a foul-mouthed, xenoraptor-riding bandit with problems of her own. He wants to get back to civilisation. She wants to protect her people, and maybe make a profit for once. Together, they might just save the planet.



A fast-moving, immersive first contact novel from the author of 2012 Tiptree Honor Book Firebrand.
