I rarely read space stories, but after reading this one, I question why I don’t pick them up more often. This was an exciting adventure featuring a strong woman who wants answers to her missing mother, and her seemingly inability to age.The characters in the story were very entertaining and complete. Luta is the main character, but is far from being the only relatable one. All of the crew members are fully formed, with unique personalities. Luta’s family members, her ailing husband and headstrong daughter, are two of my favourite characters. The three of them interact as a believably dysfunctional family in all its glory and messiness.The adventure parts of the story are exciting and fast paced. The action is understandable and adrenaline filled, especially the chase and fight scene. It was everything I could expect from a space fight.Overall, this was a fun and exciting story in a setting I rarely read. There is more to this story than just adventure though, with well fleshed out characters, and several intermingled, complex plots.
