BLURB: It has always been Marca Nbaro’s dream to achieve the near-impossible: escape her upbringing and venture into space.
All it took, to make her way onto the crew of the Greatship Athens was thousands of hours in simulators, dedication, and pawning or selling every scrap of her old life in order to forge a new one. But though she’s made her way onboard with faked papers, leaving her old life – and scandals – behind isn’t so easy.
She may have just combined all the dangers of her former life, with all the perils of the new…
I loved the Traitor Son series – see my reviews of The Red Knight, The Fell Sword, The Dread Wyrm and The Fall of Dragons – so I was delighted to see this offering on Netgalley.
It was a no-brainer that I’d apply for an arc, given that space opera is a favourite genre of mine. I’m due to start it any day now, and very much looking forward to tucking into this one. A poverty-stricken heroine goes all out to achieve her dream of getting to the stars… I can relate to that! Has anyone else got a copy of this one?

This really sounds good, and being a big space opera fan myself, I need to add this to my list. Thank you for sharing 😁
You’re welcome, Tammy. I have now started on this one – and it’s a cracking read:)).
Hmm, Marca certainly is an interesting and determined character — I hope this is a brilliant read for you!
I’ve just started it – and I’m absolutely loving it!
It has been a while since I’ve read a good space opera. I hope this one is as good as it sounds. 🙂
I’ve now had a chance to tuck into this one – and yes, it is a thumping good read:)).
