Guided by a revolutionary artificial intelligence, thousands of starry-eyed Brits blast themselves out of the solar system to start a colony on a new planet. Predictably, things go pear-shaped on the spaceship Olympia, forcing the would-be settlers to decelerate in the vast reaches of outer space with nothing but what the gods and innovation can provide.

Awoken from hypersleep years later, Ruby Ward actively avoids gods and heroes or anything strenuous as she blithely moves from one day to another. But not everyone in the Flotilla shares her carefree view of their situation. Unrest has given rise to a group called the Titans, who turn to sabotage and deceit in service of a mysterious figure promising the pilgrims a way home.
