The Hard Switch - Owen D. Pomery

Now in Paperback! n nAda, Haika, and Mallic are on a mission . . . one last mission, before everything, everywhere shuts down. They're raiding old, abandoned spaceships and wrecks for the (sometimes-expensive) parts - and they make just enough money to get by. But living their nomadic, exploring life isn't sustainable when they can't afford fuel anymore. n nThe time is coming when the mineral that makes inter-system jumps possible runs out. When it does, the scattered inhabitants of the vast galaxy will be stuck where they are. Everything will be different . . . unless the discovery in the latest wreck Ada, Haika, and Mallic are scavenging can unlock a whole new kind of interstellar transit.
