The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet is a cozier, character-driven sci-fi exploring what it means to be human. The multi-species cast of the Wayfarer are each developed through vignette-ish subplots as the ship makes the titular long journey. I loved all the characters and I hope some of them will make appearances in the rest of the series.
I would have liked a bit more description of the different planets and ships, they didn't feel as fully realized as the characters.
Overall I enjoyed The Long Way and will read more books in this series. I'm eager to meet more characters and learn more of the history and politics of this universe.
