Earthrise by M.C.A. Hogarth
4.0
Rather enjoyable.
Captain Theresa Eddings of the Earthrise struggles with her crew to stay in the black as a trader, merchant, and transporter. When her mysterious benefactor gives her the task of rescuing a spy - a member of the reclusive Eldritch race - from the hands of slavers in exchange for forgiving her debt, Reese seizes the opportunity. Along with her crew of Pelted peoples, she jumps into action, rescuing Hirianthial, and descending into a world of trouble. Much more enjoyable that I imAgined it would be. No romance, lots of action, and a warning for the squeamish, mentions of Pelted sex, incest, and slavery. 3.5 stars for a couple of confusing/clunky transitions, with an interest in reading the sequel.
