“Finder is, bar none, the best SF comic being published today.” -Strange Horizons
“It’s a delicate matter when one of your own goes so bad, so fast.”
Jaeger returns to Emma, an old girlfriend; meanwhile, Brigham, Emma’s ex-husband and Jaeger’s former commanding officer, has been released from prison, and Jaeger finds himself in the delicate position of running interference between Emma and Brigham, who, it becomes increasingly clear, is a ticking time bomb waiting to go off.
After taking what appears to be a routine guard job on a caravan, Jaeger finds himself stranded at Munkytown, a bizarre city-cum-theme-park, brokering a precarious treaty between the Ascians and the local Nyima—who are themselves thrown into chaos by the death of their king.
“The greatest gift I ever had taken away from me was a book.”
When Marcie was a little kid, her most beloved possession was a book given to her by Jaeger. Lost before she could learn to read, the book became an obsession, a totem in Marcie’s quest to recapture its lost stories—and create her own.
Rachel Grosvenor has grown up straddling worlds. The daughter of a Medawar father and a Llaverac mother, half raised by her mother’s nomadic lover, Rachel has fought her way through a grueling contest for admittance to the Llaverac clan. But just as her social ascent seems inevitable—and her family’s future secure—the theft of an indispensable heirloom sends her spiraling into the dark underbelly of Anvard and a paradox that holds the key to her future: How do you find a Finder?
