If you’d like your pre-teen or maybe teenager to learn what they normally teach in Junior Achievement, this book is for you. Tell them it’s an exciting space opera and before they know it they’re learning about inventory and how to figure the cost of running a small business.
If that sounds boring to you, congrats…you’re a normal person.
I kept waiting and waiting for some kind of action or intrigue and nothing happened. It’s literally the story of people buying and selling things at flea markets in space. I am not kidding (sorry for the spoiler). The entire bulk of the book is space flea markets and how to get stuff at the best price to sell it at the space flea markets. That’s it.
