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.
