Customer Reviews

Campy and fun

Heart slightly broken over that end but man was this book a ride. Some aspects where slightly predictable but a lot of it kept you guessing. I adored the crew dynamics and really loved the banter and snark of the characters. I think Amie and Jay are brilliant as an author team and bring such entertainment to their books that keep you on the edge of your seat the whole time. I love the characters and you just want them to succeed as your reading. I am so excited to read Aurora Burning and I really think this is an amazing book for people looking for a fun space adventure. Makes me think of Firefly a little bit.
