Resumen del Editor

A dead ship returns to the Deep Dark with a live crew.

Captain Ishmael Wang finally gets the Chernyakova out of the yard and embarks on a voyage into the Toe-Holds where the Confederated Planets Joint Committee on Trade has no authority. Where the law is whatever you say it is as long as you can enforce it.

Where he learns that some will do anything to hide their secrets and everybody has a secret.

Prefer Author Narration

After hearing the original podcast read by the author, it is a bit disheartening the trend did not continue. Lowell brought a depth to Ishmael Wang that is sorely lacking without his narration. As for the series itself, great character and plot development, good reference to prior material, and reintroduction to several subplots & characters round out a great addition to original series.

My least favorite Solar Clipper book..

Story did not really move anywhere. I don't feel like we accomplished enough. I really love all the other books in the series, but this one just felt lacking.

Bring back Nathan Lowell as the reader!

Nathan Lowell was a great reader. I miss his voice. There was more mirth in it. Jeffrey Kafer is great, but it's not the same.

Better than book 1

Overall I enjoyed this book more than the first in the series. I felt the pace was appropriate and I wasn’t bored. However, near the end some big resolutions happened with no explanation as to how it happened. I thought perhaps I missed some sly comments that explained it. I know my brain and I can certainly miss stuff. But I’m almost through the 3rd book as I write this review and the author did the same thing in the 3rd book. Resolved some big issue without any indication of how/why. Just suddenly “problem fixed.” Now maybe it is just me and I’m missing something obvious. That could be. I can be aloof sometimes. But it does bother me that so much effort was put into everything else but some big key problems were just “and now it’s resolved.” They met with Brill at the end and you aren’t told about that conversation. I thought they were saving it perhaps for the start of book 3. Nope. They reference the conversation and some information provided, but they never tell you anything about the actual talk. No background. No info to explain how Brill got out.

fantastic

I love this series and the rest of this authors work. LISTEN TO THIS SERIES

great continuation of the solar clipper series

love these books subtle, with strong character development. If you like science fiction you will love Nathan Lowell books

Another good Clipper tale

Not bad, but if I were the Captain of a half billion credit Solar Clipper and one of my officers was consistently lying to me, I'd beach him, best friends or not. I didn't really like the character Pip turned into, and Ish seemed very weak.

like this story

his reading got better this time really enjoy the storyline, going in a good direction

Love His Books

The Story's are always interesting and the Narrator is great too. All of his Books are a great read.

Nice to have the band back together

This book is the linchpin between Ish’s raw heartbreak in the first of this trilogy and the ultimate conclusion in the next. It is typical of a book 2 in a trilogy- there is a lot of getting to where you are going, exploring deeper character nuances, and progressing the story to the book 3 conclusion. Still love all the bits of business like the repetitive language around watch standing & their coffee obsession - in truth, just all the things that make up life as they move from adventure to adventure.
