Imagine Firefly meets The Dresden files. Full of snark and personality. I very much enjoyed this series. The “stowaways” add a little extra character development along the way. The author has taken liberties with reality, which is entirely ok. This is Science Fiction after all. I can totally see some feet-to-the-ground types not liking some of the ways that physics are bent, but those people are better off sticking to a good documentary.
This series may not be 100% original (even per the author’s post script) but there is a lot of content here. Well worth the purchase.
Now for the narrator…SUPERB! Every character is portrayed differently not only in voice, but in style and inflection. You really get to know the characters through his voice.
