Description
In the far future, humanity’s artificial intelligences have become gods.
Across a million worlds, mankind survives in their shadows, building societies of faith, fear, privilege and decay beneath powers too vast to understand. On the ever-night Moon of Hexator, where old hierarchies rot under artificial skies, merchant William Roxley has tried to leave his past behind. Once a magistrate-priest, he now wants little more than to trade, endure and avoid the machinery of justice he once served.
Then murder comes for the Lords of the Great Houses, and Roxley is reluctantly drawn back into the role he thought he had escaped.
With a naive young assistant and a brutish robot bodyguard as his unlikely companions, Roxley must pick his way through a world of noble secrets, religious machinery, political lies and ancient technologies whose purposes may no longer be sane. Hexator is a society collapsing under the weight of its own history, and every clue leads deeper into a mystery where nothing is quite what it appears to be.
Empty Between the Stars is Book One of The Songs of Old Sol: a science fiction noir set in a dazzling, decaying far future. Blending murder mystery, space opera, theological machinery, strange worlds and darkly inventive adventure, it is a novel for readers who like their future history immense, their detectives reluctant, and their truths waiting in the dark with a knife.
