Ancillary Sword

Ancillary Sword is the sequel to Ancillary Justice, the debut novel which won every major science fiction award in 2014 - and the only novel to have won the Hugo, the Nebula and the Arthur C. Clarke Awards.

Breq is a soldier who used to be a warship. Once a weapon of conquest controlling thousands of minds, now she only has a single body and serves the emperor she swore to destroy.

Given a new ship and a troublesome crew, Breq is ordered to the only place in the galaxy she will agree to go: Athoek station, to protect the family of a lieutenant she once knew - a lieutenant she murdered in cold blood.
