Chaos Terminal

By: Mur Lafferty

Narrated by: Kelsey Navarro Foster

Mallory Viridian would rather not be an amateur detective, and fled to outer space to avoid it…but when one of the new human arrivals on a space shuttle is murdered, she’s back in the game.

Mallory Viridian would rather not be an amateur detective, thank you very much. But no matter what she does, people persist in dying around her—and only she seems to be able to solve the crime. After fleeing to an alien space station in hopes that the lack of humans would stop the murders, a serial killer had the nerve to follow her to Station Eternity. (Mallory deduced who the true culprit was that time, too.)

Now the law enforcement agent who hounded Mallory on Earth has come to Station Eternity, along with her teenage crush and his sister, Mallory’s best friend from high school. Mallory doesn’t believe in coincidences, and so she’s not at all surprised when someone in the latest shuttle from Earth is murdered. It’s the story of her life, after all.

Only this time she has more than a killer to deal with. Between her fugitive friends, a new threat arising from the Sundry hivemind, and the alarmingly peculiar behavior of the sentient space station they all call home, even Mallory’s deductive abilities are strained. If she can’t find out what’s going on (and fast), a disaster of intergalactic proportions may occur.…

deep space fine

this murder mystery sci-fi drama was such a great series. the characters and the world building is well done.

Make sure you start with the first book!

You will have a hard time keeping up if you do not start with book one. But the series is fantastic and I can not wait for more!! Great way to use a credit. The narrator also did an outstanding job which always helps keep a good book from being hard to listen to.

Tina is still my favorite!

I love this book and seeing more of Mallory’s past.i enjoyed the subtle romance and the flirtations. I also really enjoyed how the people/aliens feel so real with all their infighting and drama and bad attitudes. Great book!

Love this series!!

Book 2 in this series is fantastic! The way the author weaves together the details to reveal so many well-thought-out plot points is incredible.
I would have appreciated the performance to provide a bit more nuanced voice differences to aid in distinguishing between characters, but overall it was good. Looking forward to the next book!!!

A great sequel

As fun as the first book with some nice twists and character developments. Avoid spoilers if you can before starting this one.
