Overview

Revenger is a 2016 science fiction novel by British author Alastair Reynolds. It is unconnected to any of Reynolds's previous works, and is the first book in the Revenger Trilogy. A sequel, entitled Shadow Captain was published on 10 January 2019, and a third and final book in the trilogy, Bone Silence, was published in 2020. Revenger won the 2017 Locus Award for Best Young Adult Book, and was a finalist for the 2018 Philip K. Dick Award. Reception Revenger has been labelled by some reviews as a young adult novel, although it has not been marketed as such by the publisher. Reynolds addresses this on his blog, saying he hopes the novel "is a straightforward SF novel that also happens to be accessible, and perhaps accessible to somewhat younger readers." Mark Yon of SFFWorld.com describes the novel as "an entertaining pirate romp ... with a touch of Firefly." Publishers Weekly calls Revenger a "remarkably creative, resonant space opera."
