A cyborg for muscle, a pessimistic engineer, a kind of flighty science officer, etc. It is obvious that she is setting up a series and getting her crew together. We are not beat over the head with how mistreated she was because of her gender, their is none of that kind of thing. The woman is a woman, but she is military trained and she can take care of her self. DUST BUNNIES I applaud the author and they way she treats her main character. If she does she'll never see her daughter again.įans of Firefly and Star Wars should enjoy this fun, fast-paced new series from USA Today best-selling author Lindsay Buroker.ĭID I OFFEND HIM. In fact he's quite fond of killing them.Īlisa has more problems than she can count, but she can't let cyborgs, savages, or ancient malfunctioning ships stand in her way. As an imperial soldier, he has no love for Alliance pilots. Her plan, however, does not account for the elite cyborg soldier squatting in the freighter, intending to use it for his own purposes. Slightly suicidal, but she believes she can do it.

Steal a dilapidated and malfunctioning freighter from a junkyard full of lawless savages. She has no money or resources, and there are no transports heading to Perun, her former home and the last imperial stronghold. After barely surviving a crash in the final battle for freedom, she's stranded on a dustball of a planet, billions of miles from her young daughter. It should be a time for celebration, but not for fighter pilot Captain Alisa Marchenko. The Alliance has toppled the tyrannical empire.
