This was a really fun sci-fi, space adventure book. People who start off hating each other, kleptomaniacs, space pirates... all fun things. There were tons of funny situations and humorous lines. It was definitely a fun book.

Something I particularly loved about the relationship between the main characters was how equal it was. I feel like too often when an author tries to have a strong female main character, they go too far. They try too hard to have it be the girl always saving the guy or she so adamantly refuses help from anyone, especially the guy.

What I liked about this was that yeah, sometimes Doran saved Solara. But sometimes Solara saved Doran. Most importantly, sometimes they had to save themselves. I liked this because it shows that you can still be strong and awesome and get help, especially as a female. Accepting help from someone, especially a guy, does not make you a damsel in distress.

I think the thing I didn't love about it was the fact that the danger never lasted very long. It seemed they'd get themselves in trouble, and by the next chapter, they'd be out of it. After coming off series like the Ascendance Trilogy and How to Train Your Dragon where our hero was in peril for 12 chapters at a time and it always left me wondering how the hell he was going to get out of it this time, everything in this book seemed a little easy. I was never at the edge of my seat because I just kept thinking, "Well, it took them three pages to get out of danger last time, I'm sure they'll be fine." And they always were.

Overall, it was a fun read, and I'd recommend it. I liked the side characters, and I'm excited for Starfall and learning more about Kane and Cassia!
