    Summary

    Ryland Grace survived the Hail Mary mission. Simon survived the Iron Lung. Neither of them are particularly happy about it.

    When Rocky and Adrian discover an artificial signal that has been broadcasting for fourteen years, Ryland makes the one mistake he swore he never would again: he goes back to space.

    Unfortunately for everyone involved, the signal belongs to a deeply traumatized ex-convict.

    Summary

    It's their third trip out since they found the taumoeba.

    The Hail Mary has been upgraded, and now runs with a crew of nine Eridians. Plus the human mascot, Grace.

    It might be his last trip out, but Grace is making the best of it. He's just in the way at that point. His eyesight is no longer needed for the ship to run smoothly, and he could be teaching instead. He's enjoyed the trip. He really has.

    But the last of the new beetles are off, headed to distant star systems. Grace was settled in at the viewport when they found an anomaly.

    That's an odd astrophage signature.

    Summary

    “I don’t一” Simon’s voice is soft and broken and he hates it, he hates the fear permeating his entire body. “I don’t want you to be a hallucination.”

    Grace’s faint mumbles and a strange whistling voice die down. Then Grace says, “This is real. It’s real, and we’re getting you out. I promise.”

    Simon closes his eyes. He breathes out.

    “My name,” he says. His voice is rough with unshed tears. “My name is Simon.”

    “Nice to meet you, Simon. Hang tight. We’ll be there soon.”
    -
    Simon is rescued from the blood ocean by a stranger who calls himself a scientist, who claims to be on his way to an alien planet called Erid. Aboard the Hail Mary, Simon has to contend with the fact that dimensional travel maybe exists, living on a space ship, and somehow surviving the struggles of deep space—all while maybe falling in love with the strange man with blue eyes.
