Overview
Cass Vero paid for her freedom in memories. Now freedom has a destination, and the deed has come due.
Two hundred junk ships. Ten thousand souls freed from stolen sleep. One address at the bottom of a deed older than paper - a garden, four years and eleven months into the dark. The fleet voted to sail. Cass, who traded her memories for freedom and kept only three, is going anyway.
The road is not a war story, though the road has teeth: a hunter called the Magpie that eats lies whole, a Null that keeps its own ledgers, a wall old enough to hold sentences. What the fleet builds while it runs is the real story - a register, a roll call, a school, a democracy quick enough to vote before the coffee finishes brewing, and one rule the rust never taught anyone: carry what matters, and carry it together.
At the end of the heading waits the offer Cass was born to refuse - a shelf where everything she loves can be kept safe forever, provided she agrees to stop paying for any of it. Her answer builds a wall, a garden, and a family. It teaches the universe a new grammar for rescue - and out past the dead stars, something very old has finally heard it.
On Planting Day, something knocks. Softly. The way you knock when you have forgotten whether you were ever let in.
Exodus is Book Four of the Junk Fleet series. Begin at Book One, Rust Gambit: Unwanted - and keep the mantra: Eyes open. Hands empty.
