Publisher's summary

The aliens are coming for us and they want our voices.

New York Times bestselling author Gail Carriger brings you a gloriously warm and unique scifi about the power of art, celebrity, and found family.

Phex is a barista on a forgotten moon. Which is fine – he likes being ignored and he’s good at making drinks. Until one day an alien hears him singing and recruits him to become a god. Now Phex is thrust headfirst into the galaxy’s most cutthroat entertainment industry, where music is visible, the price of fame can kill, and the only friends he has want to be worshiped.

Welcome to the divinity. Where there is no difference between celebrity and religion, love and belief, acolyte and alien. Where the right kind of obsession can drive a person crazy or turn them divine.

Becky Chambers meets The Voice in the first of the Tinkered Starsong trilogy in which the mysterious Dyesi are trying to take over the universe, but they’re doing it so beautifully we might just let them.

Beautiful exploration of belonging

I loved understanding Phex’s journey from outcast to refugee to trainee to demigod. Beautiful and genuine and oddly sweet!

Wonderful in all ways

The journey of Phex is everything to me. And this narration is EXACTLY how I imagined it the first time I read it

First book in a great sci fi/LGBTQIA+ series!

Phex is a very unusual main character. He learns to be a fully rounded human by the end of the series.

But in this book he is just a refugee working as a barista on a space station. One day an alien comes into his coffee bar and things begin to change to and for Phex.

I’ve really enjoyed this series on Kindle. But I’m far more excited about this audiobook! This reader is really excellent.

Read about Phex and the Space Gods and enjoy!

The comfort of a sun

Once again my favorite author has given me another comfort read. Not everyone wants to be thrusts into fame & glory. To be worshipped for their voice and shoulderblades. Working to be the best at creating something beautiful and godfix. The sun taking care of his pantheon and finding frustrating affection in a golden god that needs support to stay out of trouble. Can they find love when romantic attachments are forbidden?
Perfectly performed by the narrator. This has become another comfort listen just as Gail's other books have been.

Great book!

Gail has an incredible ability to put into words the pain of not fitting in, the joy of finding your true family, and the utter contentment of finding your place in the world. I have all 3 books in digital format and I can’t wait until the other 2 arrive in audiobook format as well. I plan to relisten today. If you have not checked out Gail’s other books you are mission out. Start with Soulless.
