Leaving Boss behind to continue diving the Boneyard, Ivoire Engineer Yash Zarlengo returns to the Lost Souls Corporation's headquarters to analyze the data from the runabout they discovered there.

Convinced that the experience in the Boneyard proves the Fleet still exists, Yash buries herself in her work, interested in little else.

Ivoire Captain Jonathan "Coop" Cooper notices Yash's growing obsession with finding the Fleet and joins her in her search.

For the first time in six years, the crew of the Ivoire feels real hope. Coop and Yash know all too well the dangers hope can pose. But this time their hope might just lead them somewhere no one expected.

A page-turning adventure, Searching for the Fleet expands Kristine Kathryn Rusch's award-winning Diving series into uncharted territory.

"[The Runabout] is so good, it will make you want to read the other stories."

—SFRevu

"Amazing character construction, building a plot that riveted me almost from the moment it began. I will now absolutely have to read the preceding titles and I cannot wait to see what will come as a result of The Runabout."

—Tangent Online

"Kristine Kathryn Rusch is best known for her Retrieval Artist series, so maybe you've missed her Diving Universe series. If so, it's high time to remedy that oversight."

—Don Sakers, Analog

The Diving Universe, conceived buy Hugo-Award winning author Kristine [Kathryn] Rusch is a refreshingly new and fleshed out realm of sci-fi action and adventure. And the latest offering...doesn't disappoint.

—Dave Dickinson, Astroguyz on Skirmishes

      Rusch’s nontraditional seventh Diving SF novel (after The Runabout) feels more like a collection of vignettes that reveal the decision paths of engineer Yash Zarlengo and captain Jonathan “Coop” Cooper. The Lost Souls Corporation space station hosts Coop, Yash, and the rest of the crew of the spaceship Ivoire, who have arrived from 5,000 years in the past after being trapped in foldspace. The challenge before them is to find where in their new time the Fleet may be, as well as to investigate the suicide of first officer Dix Pompiono and his possible sabotage of the Ivoire’s drive. There is a fair amount of research that references action in the previous book, but Rusch’s use of new viewpoint characters, solid worldbuilding, and inclusion of extensive backstory means that readers can start here without knowledge of the other works. The investigation is capped by an exciting episode involving a supposedly long-abandoned Fleet base. By mixing cerebral and investigative elements, emotional character segments, and the adrenaline of action, Rusch tells a complete yet varied tale that will please science fiction readers looking for something different from the usual fare.
