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....

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A fun adventure novel with an irresistible ragtag crew." (The Washington Post)

"An absorbing space opera, in the tradition of The Expanse and The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet." (Charles Stross, award-winning author of The Delirium Brief)

"[A] brilliant female-driven tale...Readers of Asimov, Lois McMaster Bujold's Vorkosigan saga, or Anne McCaffey's Pern series will enjoy this story." (Booklist, starred review)

It gets a little repetitive, though, having the same types of encounters with the same enemies over and over again. Also, the crew seems to be completely oblivious to the danger those enemies represent, seeming so ill prepared and ending up in exactly the same "boat" each time. Oh, well! it is still an engaging story and the kind of space opera we adoring sci-fi junkies live for!! The narrator is excellent. Without her well-metered flow and distinctive voice differentiation it might have been more of a struggle.

Fun Space Opera!!

This was a fun space opera that gripped me from the first scene. Very addictive. Emily Woo Zeller does a great job; she’s one of my favorite narrators.

A Winter Sale Treasure

I'm not sure when I bought this audiobook. Last night I was bored with what I was listening to and went searching in my Series and spotted one I didn't remember.

While, at times, I wondered when the story was going to go places, once Nika and Snow joined the Road, the story took off and was a constant ride from there to the end. I loved the characters - from the calm assurance of Royston, to the warrior Josune, the artistic Nika to the perfectionist youngster Snow, and from the passionate chef Jacques to Carlos, the Road's engineer, I loved each of the Road's crew. Each had a distinct personality that stayed true.

There was more than enough medi-science to bring the SF to the fore, but not too much to where I stopped listening.

While I had figured out who Royston was early on, it did not dull my interest in the story or where it was going. I now look forward to listening to the 2nd book in the series

Best space opera I've listened to in awhile

There is enough in this to make me hope that this could be the beginning of a great series. However, authors are playing with dice when they not only immediately start with ongoing events, and many mysteries, but then proceed with slow world-building and sparse reveals that help uncover what is actually happening, as occurred in this book. Between the a narrator's whisper-like tone to evoke a sense of urgency, and the author's weak character development, I had trouble engrossing myself in the story or even caring about the characters. I can see now, at the end, the merits of the story and the characters, but would probably need to listen to this again before continuing with the series.

Left with mixed feelings

I thought this book would be about space travel and going into new places. And while that is part of it, the main plot revolves around Nikka Rik Terri, a body modder trying to escape her abusive ex. I really enjoyed the details of body modifications and how they work in this science fiction. It was the first time I read anything like it.

Unique to me

It has a Firefly as written by Jane Austin kind of vibe. The story was good - classic band of urchins on the run from the evil corporation trope - but the narration was irritating. Way overacted. And why all the unnecessary ethnic voices? "Carlos" particularly grated. It discredited the already cutesy-in-places story. I would have preferred this book if I had read the hard copy.

Pretty Good

I counld not stop listening to this book, despite the droning, half whispering narration. The story, and characters are exceptionally crafted. I can not wait for the sequel!
(with a different narrator)

Phenomenal story, frankly, lousy narration

This one was just okay. The story was full of inconsistent and suspect technology, and the plot was kind of incomprehensible. It had good moments but then it also had parts that had me aching to fast forward. The narration also had issues, primarily stemming from a general tone that was whisper-quiet and hard to hear, which then became much too loud during dialogue or "exciting parts."

Flawed but not terrible

I enjoy this narrator and seek out her work. This sci fi was interesting, creative and fun with different story line and plenty of action. I would probably enjoy more from this author. The writing is good but not flawless. The 'science' behind the medical portions is laughably flawed, but that's the way of science fiction; the writers can't all be physicians or scientists.

Easy Listen

Crazy body hacks ala John Ringo's There Will Be Dragons, great multidimensional characters, and some interesting ideas I'd like to see a sequel develop further. Honestly, my biggest complaint is that it doesn't feel finished.
