This was such a fun read! I loved the representation of a disabled and Autistic non-binary lesbian as our protagonist, and the hopefulness of taking on fascist politicians, corrupt businesses, violent police and far right agitators all at once. I think that this spoke of trans resilience and the ways we can create the revolution in a way that warmed my heart. I also felt the autism rep was great as an Autistic person.
Looking forward to the second book!

Junker Seven is a very promising debut book! Its characters are highly loveable and revolution-inciting, making it easy to root for them along their fugitive romp through the stars.
The only major faults with this book were editorial in nature (some misspellings and clunky phrasings), but given that this is an indie published debut without the enormous resources of a traditionally published book, I'm willing to let those slide (especially since the story itself is great!)
Overall, this is a world I want to continue sinking my teeth into and a story I can't wait for the next installment of!
