    About this audiobook

    In this rip-roaring space opera, a ragtag band of explorers are out to make the biggest score in the galaxy.

    On this space jump, no one is who they seem . . .

    Captain Hammond Roystan is a simple cargo runner who has stumbled across the find of a lifetime: the Hassim, a disabled exploration ship—and its valuable record of unexplored worlds.

    His junior engineer, Josune Arriola, said her last assignment was in the uncharted rim. But she is decked out in high-level bioware that belies her humble backstory.

    A renowned body-modification artist, Nika Rik Terri has run afoul of clients who will not take no for an answer. She has to flee off-world, and she is dragging along a rookie modder, who seems all too experienced in weapons and war . . .

    Together this mismatched crew will end up on one ship, hurtling through the lawless reaches of deep space with Roystan at the helm. Trailed by nefarious company men, they will race to find the most famous lost world of all—and riches beyond their wildest dreams . . .

      I really enjoyed this adventure space opera. I had read Dunstall's Linesman books and thought they were okay, but I loved the world-building and the characters in this one much more. Yes, there are no hidden depths, but there is a lot of pure entertainment in the adventure. Recommended!

      Unfortunately, I did not care for this book. There might be some adventure in this book eventually, but it certainly didn't appear in the first third of the book. I gave up at that point. Up until then, I had learned more than I wanted to about body modification. It's a very prevalent technique for curing defects and creating new identities. That might have been interesting as an incidental feature in this world, but it felt like it was the only unique feature. If this is the start of a series, I will definitely not be continuing with it.I received a free copy of this book from the publisher.

      I do hope for series - I love this crew!

      An intriguing story that held my interest all the way to the end.

      Fantastic book, great fun and the narrator was one of the best I've listened to. Highly recommended.
    • 5/5
      It’s been a very long time since I’ve found a new book that I couldn’t wait to finish, and this find has made me incredibly happy. It’s the first book I’ve cared to finish in a while.

      While true science enthusiasts may be a bit frustrated at the lack of scientific explanation, the extensive character development, plot, and pace of the novel more than make up for it. There’s just enough science to keep this at science fiction, and every chapter kept me thoroughly enticed to hear more.

      I can’t recommend this book enough.
    • 4/5
      What a great fun read. Couldn't put it down. Likeable characters, lots of action, surprises and twists, nicely written. Already picked up book 2.
    • 2/5
      It was not rip roaring. It was not fun. Unexpected body horror. Finished off with a saccharine ending that didn’t fit the creeping despair of the book.

      Nika Rik Terri, well-known body modder, runs into trouble when someone from a powerful company forces her to use her body exchanger, using her body to commit murder while she heals his body. She was planning to leave her abusive boyfriend anyway, but this just gives her a stronger reason to disappear. Meanwhile, Josune Arriola has left her ship for a special mission: stay close to captain Hammond Roystan. When her ship nullspaces right in front of them and they find the crew murdered by a company, the stakes suddenly get high. Can the crew outrun the company in a universe where the Big Twenty-Seven even have the police in their pockets?I wanted to like this book more than I did, as it definitely has shades of Firefly in it and sets up what could be an interesting world - heck, universe - to explore. I almost wanted this to be a TV series rather than a book - I had trouble visualizing the different worlds/planets they visit, and what the spaceships or mod machines (the way you can change how you look on a whim) looked like and worked. The plot itself is a little light, too, as it's really just them being chased for the majority of the time, and you don't really know why. Or, well, I did kind of figure it out actually. Things were telegraphed early on and not very subtly. It has promise, though, and while the story is self-contained it left room for sequels.
