Our universe is ruled by physics, and faster-than-light travel is not possible - until the discovery of The Flow, an extradimensional field we can access at certain points in space-time that transports us to other worlds, around other stars. Humanity flows away from Earth, into space, and in time forgets our home world and creates a new empire, the Interdependency, whose ethos requires that no one human outpost can survive without the others. It's a hedge against interstellar war - and a system of control for the rulers of the empire.

Short interview with the author.
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
Only to fans of the author. This is a author sales pitch for her latest story.
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
Most interesting: Actually hearing from this very entertaining author.
Least interesting: Not much actually
Would you be willing to try another one of Jodi Taylor’s performances?
probably. But hopefully with a better audio quality, it was a bit muddy and difficult to understand some words here and there.
Do you think Jodi Taylor — November 2016 needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
That is not really applicable.
Any additional comments?
more interviews but with better audio please.

Great to hear Jodiv Taylor give background to her books. Very unassuming - glad her undervalued opinion of her talent doesn't stop her producing brilliant books. Her characters are believable and situations usually interesting and humorous - never dull.
