2/3 COMPLETED!!!  Now, I'm just waiting for my brother to bring over the third...

Pretty much all the same as the last review I wrote.  Loving the fact that Devi is such a powerful female character.  It's refreshing.

More aliens, adventures, and battle.  Awesome!  Can't wait to read the final installment.

Will read and write soon!

Fortune's Pawn by Rachel Bach


TITLE:  Fortune's Pawn (Paradox #1)
AUTHOR:  Bach, Rachel
GENRE:  Science Fiction
DATES READ:  2/21/2015 - 3/11/2015
MY RATING:  4/5

My brother and sister-in-law talked my into reading this.  Science fiction is not usually my forte, but I want variety on this blog, so here goes...

I was not expecting to... but I loved this book!

Starting with the sassy, tough, and capable-as-all-get-out mercenary Deviana ("Devi") all the way to the mysteriously domestic Rupert, the Glorious Fool houses quite a cast of characters.  It reminded my of the short-lived show Firefly complete with smart ass commander, and a crew fit for piracy.

The author seamlessly blends outer space aliens, and fights into a beautiful space age adventure.  I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it!!!  Definitely recommended for anyone up for the ride!

Will read and write soon!
