À propos de cet audio

The captain of a family-owned starship arranges a marriage for her son in hopes of achieving faster-than-light travel and maybe, just maybe, marital bliss.

Before Hisako Saski is even born, her parents make a deal on her behalf. In exchange for a first-class education and a boost out of poverty, Hisako will marry Adem Sadiq, a maintenance engineer and self-styled musician who works the trade lanes aboard his family's sub-light starship, the Hajj.

Hisako is not happy when she finds out about the plan. She has little interest in the broken branch of physics the deal requires her to study and is not keen on the idea of giving up her home and everything she knows to marry a stranger.

Sparks fly when Adem and Hisako meet, but their personal issues are overshadowed by the discovery of long-held secrets and a chance at faster-than-light travel.

High Concept, Rushed Story

This was a fun space opera that used relativistic physics to great effect. The world and its characters are intriguing, and while I didn't get the ending I was hoping for, the one I got seemed to suit them better. It felt complete, and self contained—which I appreciate in a sci-fi novel.

Spoilers:

My only wish is that there was more to flesh them out, make them and their decisions feel more whole—and to have them spend more time together, to explore the penultimate relationship they promise throughout the first half of the book
