took a chance with this book, while not terrible or anything, it was meh. I didn't feel as engaged as I typically get with similar books. the voice acting was pretty great, loved the different characters.

the story was a bit of a disappointment. just didn't seem to go any where and would then rocket forward from one paragraph to another. actions were not clear until they were explained in post.

good, but could have been better.

Returned the title.

Other than the tragic start of the story, everything else that happens in this book seems to be an endless cycle of "boy gets angry and throws tantrum, then regrets it". This may change in the second half of the book but I couldn't stomach the thought of pushing myself through the angsty slog to find out.

The narration, on its own, was excellent.

I wanted to like this book. It started with a promising premise, and went down hill from there. Apparently no one in this universe has ever thought to arm ships. the idea is never brought up or even explained away. Despite characters using literal lasers, can't even strap one of those to the wing of a ship. there are plenty of other shortfalls I feel the story had, but despite all this, I still tried to like the book. I liked the crew and their little quirks and scars. I feel like the author would do very well if they were to team up with someone who was good at the Sci-fi ship battles and tech, and they could focus on the general story and the characters.
