This one was difficult for me to finish reading. The main reason was because of poor pacing. There were times it flowed, but others that it was too busy. I understood where the author was going, but felt so much was going on that the story often lacked the attention to detail it deserved. Then it would slow down and have a more intimate, character building moment. Making more sense, and drawing me back in. Eva and her crew are definitely interesting. Care was given to them, but elsewhere not so much. Particularly in world building. So many alien species and different worlds brought up that were never described. Fast paced action that often got lost in itself. If I hadn't read other Sci-fi that had similar concepts, I probably would have totally been lost.
I do like the characters and the author's sense of humor so I may try the second one sometime in the future, but when I have more time.

There’s a blurb that if Firefly and Mass Effect had a baby, it would be this book and that’s very accurate. If Shepard was less competent and had way more mishaps on her missions, she would be a lot like our main character Eva. We also have the world building of the Wayfarers series with way more action. There are more mentions of farts here than I’ve probably read in other books which did annoy me but it seemed to subside as the story went on and I could look past it. Also if you’re looking for alien romance, you do get it here (fade to black fyi for my monster loving girlies out there - don’t get your hopes up). But for someone who lived romancing they aliens in mass effect, I dug it.
