I am a big Josh Dalzelle fan, ever since I first read the blackfleet trilogy. Blueshift is not at all like those books, except for the character depth. I could not stop listening to this book, there were so many excellent points of view and I felt like the characters were real people, so much so that I absolutely hate Rebecca. Rebecca is a plotting back stabber, but so we’ll written that it’s like hating a real person.
