The writing, in and of itself, was fine, and the story is very fast-paced. So fast-paced that by the 10% mark, . The problem I had with this was that there was not enough previous backstory or character exploration provided for me to care. I felt the story as a whole would have been a lot stronger with proper set up for not only the main characters but also for the side characters and the villains. Because of these missing pieces, it did not make for a very compelling read.

Wasn't a big fan of this one. The pacing is a bit of a mess and there's not much explanation or details most of the times especially when it comes to world building. There's barely any of that.
There's a few concepts that was interesting but the author never really touches up on it so I'm gonna give it 2 stars for that. The setting was good but as I said before there's barely any details. I wished she focused a bit more on world building rather than solely focusing on James and Michael.
The story was mostly about James and Michael being beaten up and running here and there but never dying. Hated the way James just threw everything he ever known just for Michael when he barely knows the guy.
Too much stuff has been skipped even the ending!! I was wondering how they will beat up Lyra and they just skipped it by knocking out James.
Thank you Netgalley for providing me with a digital copy for an honest review.

very, very average. the characters were fleshed out enough that they weren't one-dimensional, but i couldn't really call them complex either. the plot was a very simple, run-of-the-mill affair, with space scavengers trying to steal something for money. there was very little worldbuilding, which was irritating, and i didn't find the whole Anika plotline very believable. that being said, i don't think i would call it bad, just bland.

The book was alright, but i had a hard time connecting with the characters. They were running around all the time, plus James basically threw himself over Michael almost just after meeting him. It was just lots of running around and characters we didn't get to spend so much time with. So, sadly this book wasn't for me.
