Excellent Story

Fun science fiction book. Good heroes. Neat plot. Very well read. I really enjoyed it.

Good stuff

Fun story with good characters. I hope he keeps the series going. Classic sci-fi stuff.

On Par with the First Book

I got the same vibes about this book as I did the first one. Overall, I found it to be an interesting story that held my attention. As with the first book, the first half is all character building and world building. There are a few small action sequences that keep you intrigued until the final battle.

What I loved most about this book was Characters that you have come to enjoy in a completely different style of adventure. Additionally, the new characters who are introduced are likable and interesting, even the bad guys.This story bares no resemblance to the first book, yet it is very good. Moreover, this story ends on a cliffhanger that could easily become a third book. Hopefully we will get the third book sooner or later. 

Excellent sequel

Overall an excellent sequel. All the elements that made the first book good are back and Mike's writing is improved as well (as it should be).

My only complaint is that it feels too short. The journey to Ithaca is chronicled too little. There was little character growth of Annabelle (who, as a teenager needs character growth) or of the junior engineer she convinces to comes along. While there's an excellent amount of exposition of the the new XO and he's a very well developed character, I wish more had been spent on the two aforementioned characters as well.

Basically, it felt like this novel had material chopped out. There were parts where content felt like it was missing. This novel probably would have been just right at the same length as Her Brother's Keeper (where all the protagonists got the proper amount of attention to development, including the side characters like Cecil's friend), but instead it's 3 hours shorter.

Looking forward to the next novel. The flaws in this one aren't that great and it definitely deserves to be bought and listened to (or read).

Great Sequel

Mike Kupari has outdone himself. The new characters were a great addition to the story. They helped develop the already great cast of lovable rogues and privateer sailors. The story was different enough from Her Brothers Keeper to feel fresh, but familiar in the best ways. I look forward to the next book in the series

Awesome

Reminds me of the space stories from my childhood. I grew up reading Asimov, Heinlein, and this reminds my of them. Loved it.

A Fun Ride! Classic Sci-fi for the modern era!

Mike Kupari returns us to the galaxy of Her Brother's Keeper with another fun romp through outer space.
A must-listen for fans of classic sci-fi!

Even better than the first one.

This story had better character development and a few surprising twists, while still being true to the "good guys vs. Bad guys" overall theme of the series. I enjoyed it.
