The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet is the first book in the Wayfarers series. Rosemary Harper is looking to get away from her past and get far away. She doesn’t expect much when she joins the crew of the Wayfarer, but she knows it will give her those two things. She soon finds that her crew is unlike any she has ever met and that life aboard the Wayfarer can get pretty crazy. The crew will need to learn to trust each other and rely on one another if they hope to survive, and they just might become a family along the way.

The second book in the series, A Closed and Common Orbit is a standalone novel that tells the story of Lovelace. She was once the ship’s artificial intelligence, but after a complete shutdown and reboot – she awakens in a body with no memory of her past. She decides to explore the universe to find out who she truly is and ends up meeting Pepper, an engineer that is happy to help her grow. The two discover that the vastness of space is no match for the relationship they can build together.
