All Systems Red

I gotta admit, early into this I wasn't feeling it.

There's something about an introduction into a new sci-fi universe that can be daunting, if not downright grating. A lot of modern sci-fi can be really good but fail in the opening chapters of creating a setting/world/universe that the reader can feel and get a grasp on. A mental image.

This was definitely one of those cases. I continued to read out of obligation to the book and I was ultimately happy I did.

This was enjoyable and flew by. I'll definitely keep reading.
