These are fun books. Have a Firefly-Star Wars space adventurey feel with lots of humor and snark. It starts off fast and strong but has a few laggy moments in the middle where Fergus is driving around in the Deep. Picks up again for the end, though I thought Zacker's conclusive arc was tied up really quick and neat. I thought Zacker was going to be more present during the book too rather than the sort of disembodied voice go-between. Hard to say if anyone introduced in this book will play much part in the next because so far it's been a fairly loose trilogy (at least, I think it's a trilogy? Maybe not). A lot of side characters in this one but they were a delight. Palmer plays with some fun tropes and I'm a little sad we probably won't see most of these people again.

Looking forward to the next one.
