The Revenger series follows two sisters who leave their comfortable life to become “bone readers” on a treasure-hunting ship in a far-future solar system. Revenger (2016) introduces this world of alien ruins, pirate crews, and strange technologies left over from millions of years of civilization. Shadow Captain (2019) and Bone Silence (2020) continue the story.
The series has a more swashbuckling, adventure-oriented feel than Reynolds’s Revelation Space novels. The setting is imaginative, with thousands of small worlds scattered throughout the solar system, each potentially hiding valuable relics from earlier civilizations.
