3.5 Stars
Making lemonade.
Post-war is never easy, but when you're struggling to figure out how to play the hand you're stuck with afterwards is a challenge. Felix and Zed: best friends, teammates, lovers--until they're torn apart. Suddenly, that drift is gone, and the truth of what's happened to both of them is standing starkly in front of them, waiting to be acknowledged.
This was pretty good for a science fiction romance. It's a hurt comfort and a bit of a thriller as the crew of the Chaos faces off against opponents while running their cargo. I liked the characters a lot. It is a romance, but the plot is a major component, so it's not all kisses and sighs. 3.5 rounded up because I like that it didn't whimp out at the end. I'm interested in seeing what's slated for the sequel.
