Creation Machine, Spin Trilogy

A tyrant’s rebel daughter embarks on a race across an artificial galaxy in this “ambitious, compulsively readable” space opera trilogy debut (Guardian, UK).

In the vast, artificial galaxy called the Spin, a rebellion has been crushed. Industrialist tyrant Viklun Hass is eliminating all remnants of the opposition—starting with his maverick daughter. But Fleare Hass has had time to plan her next move. And so begins her journey from exile to the very frontiers of a new war.

For hundreds of millions of years, the planets and stars of the Spin have been the only testament to the god-like engineers who created them. Now, beneath the surface of a ruined planet, one of their machines has been found . . . and the Spin will never be the same . . .
