Quarter Share by Nathan Lowell
A Trader's Tale from the Golden Age of the Solar Clipper
Set in a universe where interstellar trade is the backbone of society, the story follows Ishmael Wang, a young man who finds himself unexpectedly thrust into the world of spacefaring after the sudden death of his mother. With limited options, he joins the crew of the merchant ship "Lois McKendrick" as a low-ranking "quarter share" crew member. As Ishmael navigates the challenges of shipboard life, he learns the intricacies of trade, camaraderie, and self-discovery, all while uncovering the hidden dynamics of the crew and the vast universe beyond. His journey is one of growth, resilience, and the pursuit of a place to belong.
