Stina Leicht
Hugo award–nominated author Stina Leicht has created a take on space opera for fans of The Mandalorian and Cowboy Bebop in this high-stakes adventure.Persephone Station, a seemingly backwater planet that has largely been ignored by the United Republic of Worlds becomes the focus for the Serrao-Orlov Corporation as the planet has a few secrets the corporation tenaciously wants to exploit. Rosie—owner of Monk’s Bar, in the corporate town of West Brynner, caters to wannabe criminals and rich Earther tourists, of a sort, at the front bar. However, exactly two types of people drank at Monk’s back bar: members of a rather exclusive criminal class and those who sought to employ them. Angel—ex-marine and head of a semi-organized band of beneficent criminals, wayward assassins, and washed up mercenaries with a penchant for doing the honorable thing is asked to perform a job for Rosie. What this job reveals will effect Persephone and put Angel and her squad up against an army. Despite the odds, they are rearing for a fight with the Serrao-Orlov Corporation. For Angel, she knows that once honor is lost, there is no regaining it. That doesn’t mean she can’t damned well try.

"Not worth the time. The world was too ambitious and not fully explained, I spent the entirety of the book not fully grasping what was going on. You never get the chance to connect with any of the characters before you’re switching perspective or something crazy happens. They all had such cool backstories- or so it seemed. I wouldn’t know, they were barely explained. The ending was jaw droppingly bad, the fight with the big bad ended in a couple sentences. I would not recommend this book. "
"Ending felt a bit rushed, but overall an enjoyable read. The aliens communicating through scent was really neat!"
