Publisher's Summary
This cozy debut science fiction novel tells a story of misfits, rebels, found family—and a mystery that spans the stars
Welcome to the Grand Abeona Hotel: home of the finest food, the sweetest service, and the very best views the galaxy has to offer. All year round it moves from planet to planet, system to system, pampering guests across the furthest reaches of the milky way. The last word in sub-orbital luxury—and an absolute magnet for intrigue. Intrigues such as: Why are there love poems in the lobby inbox? How many Imperial spies are currently on board? What is the true purpose of the Problem Solver’s conference? And perhaps most pertinently—who is driving the ship?
Each guest has a secret, every member of staff a universe unto themselves. At the center of these interweaving lives and interlocking mysteries stands Carl, one time stowaway, longtime manager, devoted caretaker to the hotel. It’s the love of his life and the only place he’s ever called home. But as forces beyond Carl’s comprehension converge on the Abeona, he has to face one final question: when is it time to let go?
What the critics say
"With dry wit and a gunslinger's level eye, Grace Curtis takes us to a New West strange, familiar, and delightful—downtrodden with a gleam of hope amid the tumbleweeds. A real treat."—Max Gladstone, Hugo- and Nebula-Award Winning Author
"Curtis has done it again—delivering a high stakes slice-of-life novel that’s bleeding with heart. The underbelly of the Abeona hotel may be rotting with secrets, but like the guests, you’ll be too dazzled by its effortless charm to notice. If you read one sci-fi novel this year, make it this one.”—Kate Dylan, author of Mindwalker
"Bittersweet and breathtaking, with evocative prose and a scope that's somehow both intimate and galaxy-spanning, Floating Hotel is like the Abeona itself. It invites you to enjoy its atmospheric and multi-layered story and lovable cast at your leisure—and the deeper you get, the less willing you are to let it go. Grace Curtis has a new fan for life!”—Jules Arbeaux, author of Lord of the Empty Isles
