Ancestral Machines
ByPublisher Description
The Warcage: two hundred worlds harnessed to an articial sun in a feat of unprecedented stellar engineering. Built to travel through space as a monument to peace between alien species, now its voracious rulers have turned it into a nightmarish wasteland, capturing new planets for slaves and resources, then discarding the old.
Now, when a verdant agri-world is pulled out of its orbit, the captain of a smuggler ship must journey into the Warcage to rescue his crew.

“I really wanted to like Ancestral Machines, but no matter how hard I tried I simply couldn't. The only reason why I gave it two stars and not one is that I managed to finish it - so clearly it could be worse.”
