Choose the Name of Nika’s Ship

If you’ve read Exin Ex Machina, you know that near the end of the book, Nika gets herself a lovely starship. If you’ve read Aurora Rhapsody, you know that in my books, ships tend to take on a personality (and sometimes a life) of their own. Ships are characters in their own right, and they deserve proper, meaningful names.

So here’s your chance to contribute to Asterion Noir in a cool way. As you’d expect, Nika and Dashiel will be spending some time on the new ship in Book 2. Like I did, they’ll decide it needs a name - and what they choose is up to you. All the options have personal meaning for Nika (whether historical or psychological), so we’ve got that prerequisite covered. Your options are:

KIR (Nika's Artificial during the SAI Rebellion that became part of her core psyche)

Nova (NOir Vertsatile Adjunct /a star that suddenly becomes thousands of times brighter)

Riven (to be torn or split asunder)

Wayfarer (traveler, or one on a journey)

The poll will close in one week (Tuesday, October 2nd at noon EST). Click the button below to vote - and don’t forget to click “submit” after you choose!
