Publisher's summary

The Serenity lands on the remote moon of Abel for a lucrative job but becomes embroiled in a young woman’s quest for vengeance and a starving frontier town’s fight for survival. Join Mal and the gang in this enthralling original tie-in novel from the award-winning series.

The Serenity crew head to Yell City, one of the settlements on Abel, a moon in the Rim. Their job: track down the killers of a local lawyer shot dead in the streets by a local gang. Their client is Annie Roberts, the eighteen-year-old daughter of the murdered man.

Lucky for them, Annie Roberts is more than capable of handling herself. Unlucky for them, the job is lot more complicated than they at first think it is. Annie’s father is not just the victim of local gang violence but also the target of some powerful men.

Taking down a local gang is one thing, but cleaning up a whole city? That’s not a job for the Serenity crew. But when their ship is impounded and Mal and the crew find themselves trapped in Yell City, they realize they are already in deeper than they could have ever imagined.

My favorite series

Staying true to the characters 100%. Although not used to having a female narrator, it worked. I would love to know how to talk like this in real life. The vocabulary is one of my favorite things about this sci-fi Western . I truly hope there are more of these in the future.

Sooooooo... derivative...

This book seems like a copy of True Grit and the two narrators changing back and for seems forced and annoying.

Another fun adventure!

Some folks seem to think every new Firefly book had to be the next great American novel. Me? I'm just glad for another opportunity to spend time with my favorite characters. Keep 'em comin'!!!!

Solid and fun story but forgettable at best

Another solid tale to the Firefly universe. These stories are great as one offs but we need to start getting into the bigger universe stories that the show had planned.

Female narrorator was a little rough but wasn't too bad imo.

Enjoyed

It took me a while to get used to two different people telling this story. But I get what they were trying to do. Typical Firefly story, good as always

Least Favorite Firefly

I love the Firefly series for the way it gives us more time with well beloved characters, and I hope they write more. This one was my least favorite, though. I get what Una was trying to do, but Annie's character was annoying, and I don't care what she thinks of the crew. Her commentary was distracting and took away valuable time we could be directly enjoying the crew and their perspective. The crew was also split up for almost all the book in the same groups of two or three, limiting their overall interaction and giving us less of them together in diversity of interaction. And there was no Firefly as its own character. It was absent from the story. Overall, it felt like only a little taste of the crew and not a full Firefly adventure.

one narrator & move on

Multiple narrators only serve to confuse the story.

As much as I love Serenity and Firefly, we need to move on to events AFTER Serenity.
