Few dare enter the roiling storms of the purple gas giant Gethen, and those who return, return changed. But far above in Gethen’s orbit is the Knot, a city-state built on an ancient, ever-shifting artifact, where you can find all the wonders of the Conflux if you can master a city where the maps change daily. Of Gethen’s 108 moons, the eight largest offer everything from sporting events and casino entertainment to heavy industry and research facilities. The other hundred “Smugglers’ Moons” are Gethen’s frontier, home to criminal dens, pirate hideaways, shotgun shacks—and the kind of secrets hidden where no one’s ever expected to look.
