This one started out well, but . . . . kind of tailed off, like she had run out of ideas? And I didn't really connect with any of the characters except the ship AI. Which is pretty cool. But, 500+ pages! For Book #1 of a new series, by a new author!
I'd read something else by her, after she gets her writing chops down, but I gave up on this one about 1/4 in. If you are thinking about reading it, I'd suggest reading some of the other 2 and 3-star reviews. My rating: 2.5 stars for what I read, rounded down for lack of promise of improvement.
Big Plus: great cover art!

Started twice. Quit twice. Moving on.
Good decision, I think.
Agreed, the first 1/4 was promising I groaned so many times thru the rest. Barely finished. Advise to skip this one.
Heh. Unanimity among great minds! ❤️ 😇 💥
Omg you missed all the good stuff! Your call for sure, but I promise things get very interesting around halfway and don't stop for the rest of the book.
