I was hooked from the description but the gorgeous prose and lyrical writing hypnotized me through this gorgeous opening. I was swept into the ship, full of tumultuous histories and devious personalities. So many plot lines and complicated character threads were presented in the initial chapters but it didn’t feel bulky or clunky. Instead, like floating through space, they eased into each other, promising an engaging story that will dance from one page to the next. I can’t wait to read this book.
