Mighty Fine

This book is a mighty fine continuation of the Firefly series of novels. The author is good and so is the reader.

An awesome read!

This one keeps your full attention all throughout the book. The narrator is amazing and gives you more of the Firefly experience!

Fun listen

Book was a fun listen love hearing more about the beloved crew. Can we just pretend the movie doesn’t happen and continue with this authors universe?

Helpful ☺️

So many of the fans of the tv show always wanted to know what happened next. This series does a great job of giving us the stories between the cancellation and the movie. Throughly enjoyable.

Love these stories

I am a big fan of the show and movie, love these side stories and the comics they made for additional content. I can't get enough Firefly

my favorite firefly book yet

this was really good, evrry step I kept asking, how are they going to get out of this!

Love this entire series

I love all the books of this series. The writing is great. The stories are fun. And the narration is spot on! Captures all the characters’ personalities perfectly. As a Firefly fan- these are a must read!

I love the new Firefly stories.

I love the new Firefly stories. It is what we lost when the show was cancelled. Stories constrained a bit by taking place before Serenity movie. But still great. The narration is excellent. I could easily visualize the original crew.

Could be the basis for future mini-series. Though casting would be tough. The original cast was perfect!

the ending

I like the story in general, but it felt rushed at the end, from the fight in the cave to final credits could have been expanded upon.

Too Loquacious

The narrator was great. The story was a bit long-winded. Too much combat and way too much time spent on Attada.
