Review: Pirates, Aliens, and wormholes, oh my!
Rating: 4 out of 5

This story has it all! Pirates, aliens, strange new planets and sights, a strong heroine, romance, and even bickering in the office. But this suffers from the same problem as most of the other science fiction on the market these days - it gets weighed down by technical details and drowns under trying to show off all its futuristic technology. It's good to lend flavor to a story and assist it along, but the story tends to lose my interest when the technology takes over as being the center of the story and even the starring role. But the story did have a lot of merits - the narrative voice of Crystal was refreshing and gave the story a viewpoint for the audience to watch through the eager eyes of, her other co-workers were fascinating in their alienness and how they related to each other, romance is always a good lure, and the pirate fight was every inch exhilerating.
