*2018 LOCUS AWARD WINNER OF BEST SCIENCE FICTION NOVEL* *2018 HUGO AWARD FINALIST FOR BEST NOVEL* “John Scalzi is the most entertaining, accessible writer working in SF today.” —Joe Hill, author of The Fireman Set in a new universe, this space-opera sequence by the Hugo Award-winning, New York Times-bestselling author introduces a reality governed by physics where faster-than-light travel was once deemed impossible. The discovery of The Flow, an extradimensional field, changes everything, allowing humanity to reach distant planets and leading to the rise of the Interdependency, an empire built on the interdependence of its outposts. However, as The Flow shifts like a river, entire worlds risk being cut off from one another. When it becomes clear that The Flow is moving and could permanently isolate human worlds, three key figures—a scientist, a starship captain, and the emperox—must work against the clock to salvage their crumbling empire. This thrilling narrative combines political intrigue, humor, and action, appealing to fans of epic tales like Game of Thrones and Dune. Scalzi's signature style delivers a fun yet thought-provoking adventure in a universe on the brink of collapse. The Interdependency Series includes: 1. The Collapsing Empire 2. The Consuming Fire
