These Burning Stars - Bethany Jacobs

IMMERSIVE AND EPIC. --Kameron Hurley \n AN IMPRESSIVE DEBUT. --Kate Elliot \n ONE OF THE BEST SCI-FI BOOKS I'VE READ, PERIOD. --Michael Mammay \n A dangerous cat-and-mouse quest for revenge. An empire that spans star systems, built on the bones of a genocide. A carefully hidden secret that could collapse worlds, hunted by three women with secrets of their own. All collide in this explosive space opera debut from a powerful new voice in sci-fi. \n \n On a dusty backwater planet, occasional thief Jun Ironway has gotten her hands on the score of a lifetime: a secret that could raze the Kindom, the ruling power of the galaxy. \n \n A star system away, preternaturally stoic Chono and brilliant hothead Esek-- the two most brutal clerics of the Kindom--are tasked with hunting Jun down. \n \n And tracking all three across the stars is a ghost from their shared past known only as Six. But what Six wants is anyone's guess. It's a game of manipulation and betrayal that could destroy them all. And they have no choice but to see it through.\n
