Resumen del Editor

From acclaimed short-fiction star Suzanne Palmer comes an action-packed sci-fi caper that launches a high-stakes space adventure trilogy.

Fergus Ferguson, repo-man, has one job: find the spacecraft Venetia's Sword and steal it back from Arum Gilger, ex-nobleman turned power-hungry trade boss. Finding Gilger in the farthest corner of human-inhabited space, a gas-giant harvesting colony called Cernee, was easy. The hard part will be getting past a field of space mines, hacking into the Sword's compromised AI, and fighting a crew of hostile enemies to take control of the ship.

But when a cable car explosion launches Cernee into a civil war, Fergus finds himself caught in the crosshairs. Repossessing the Sword requires him to side with Gilger's enemies, risk death, and get abducted by aliens. Fergus must learn to set aside his pride - and confront a past he's been running from his whole life - in order to take back the Sword and simultaneously save Cernee from destruction.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"It has been a long time since I enjoyed an SF novel this much. Finder is a raucous good time! Suzanne Palmer's Fergus Ferguson is charming, imperfect, always in trouble, and a most resourceful rogue. I can't wait for his next adventure. Characterization at its finest. Firecracker dialogue. Suzanne Palmer had me hooked, charmed, and howling with delight by the end of the first act. Finder is a marvelous first novel. Bravo all the way around." (W. Michael Gear, New York Times best-selling author of Outpost)

character interactions extremely draining

Is a good concept for a science fiction story along with pretty decent story structure but I couldn't get over the interaction between the characters as their dialogue and interactions were so overly dramatic and nonsensical that you started to dislike all of the characters except for the dead one

A refreshing adventure.

Worthy of awards, this remarkable tale is reminiscent of the great space stories. Balanced in its’ telling, self-contained, and with a good pace for a fairly long work, Finder will appeal to any SF reader. I will look for more work by this author.

Enjoyable story

overall it was a enjoyable story. I found the narrator a tad monotone. He is okay overall but I would love it if he developed a little more voice acting for his performance.

Good

I enjoyed the book. It’s not anything fantastic but good enough that I’ll read the next one.

Enjoyable!

Fergus Ferguson is the walking definition of a pyrrhic victory. That boy can't get out of a scrap without breaking half the bones in his body to save his life [literally].

Also, I believe I need a short story about the Shielders, they are AWESOME.

Overall a very good listen and definitely enjoyable. The kind of scifi you could easily read while traveling or working.

excellent Space Opera written by a very good autho

author Suzanne Palmer.
main protagonist with a unique profession set in space called a "finder". someone who will for a price retrieve your property that was stolen so in essence a Thief of your very own. and Fergus the finder has such a good reputation that his profession has some legal basis or culturally acceptable basis and in space communities wheels and Farms and habitats.

meh 😼

This is an ok book. The relationships between the characters is really well done. The snarky comments that attempt to hide their true respect and loyalty are sharp yet funny and poignant. The creative ways they find to get themselves into and out of trouble is always creative, but also often cringeworthy. My issue with this book is that it jumps around in time and location. It was difficult to keep up with where and when they were.

What a refreshing new story!

What a wonderful refreshing new SciFy story. It was full of adventure, humor and plot twists. Very engaging.

25th Century RePro Man

Find here is a great lump through distant stars. Fergus Ferguson is on a mission to retrieve a stolen starship. If only it was that simple. During the snatch and grab mission he becomes embroiled in a SpacerCivil War

Good story, interesting characters 🤔

This was my first book by Suzanne Palmer. The story was very good and had a unique premise that's not as cookie cutter as what most authors are producing.
If you're tired of the same old story told another way this story is very good and I'm interested in seeing what direction she takes it. The potential is endless!
