I’m not quite sure who I like more - the badass pilot, the smart but inexperienced clerk or the mechanic who spreads joy around her and keeps the ship from exploding. Sure, they’re a rather unique bunch, but ultimately there are a lot of ships like theirs and a lot of equally interesting destinies in the galaxy.Ĥ. This is the story of the crew on a ship that builds traffic routes. This isn’t a story about the Chosen One saving the galaxy. Every crew member matters and is made interesting and memorable. If you love well-written settings where the lore isn’t a bunch of facts but is actually a huge factor in the plot, you will like this.ģ. There are all these interesting alien species, with interesting cultures and history which affect their society. Bad people exist, but people in general are mostly nice and almost always interesting. And yet, the world is a mostly beautiful and good place. To survive, Rosemary’s got to learn how to rely on this assortment of oddballs-an experience that teaches her about love and trust, and that having a family isn’t necessarily the worst thing in the universe.ġ0 reasons I love The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet:ġ. In the far reaches of deep space, the tiny Wayfarer crew will confront a host of unexpected mishaps and thrilling adventures that force them to depend on each other. But risking her life wasn’t part of the plan. Tunneling wormholes through space to a distant planet is definitely lucrative and will keep them comfortable for years.
It’s also about to get extremely dangerous when the crew is offered the job of a lifetime. Life aboard the Wayfarer is chaotic and crazy-exactly what Rosemary wants. An introspective young woman who learned early to keep to herself, she’s never met anyone remotely like the ship’s diverse crew, including Sissix, the exotic reptilian pilot, chatty engineers Kizzy and Jenks who keep the ship running, and Ashby, their noble captain. While the patched-up ship has seen better days, it offers her a bed, a chance to explore the far-off corners of the galaxy, and most importantly, some distance from her past. Rosemary Harper doesn’t expect much when she joins the crew of the aging Wayfarer. Follow a motley crew on an exciting journey through space-and one adventurous young explorer who discovers the meaning of family in the far reaches of the universe-in this light-hearted debut space opera from a rising sci-fi star.
