Merged review for Starfall Station:

She might be bad luck
you can't even shop in peace
the hugs are nice, though. ( )

This was a fun continuation of Alisa's story. I enjoyed the plot, and how we got to see some more of the world. I did, however, feel like this was just too short, and not enough happened. It really focused on one event and it was done well, but I wanted more things to happen. I'll definitely continue this series though :) ( )

This book is definitely an improvement over the first book, having no threat of sexual assault to get the point across that someone is evil. The after story however mentions slavers which is almost treading back into that territory.
The book however seems to change up some of the characters skin colors for some odd reason. Beck goes from being black to being "bronze" which reads to me that he has a much lighter skin tone.
Another factor that's still there is the reliance on Leonidas to get them all out of a situation with his cyborg powers. Which once again means our hero has to rely on a man to bail her out of a situation.
It's getting better slowly. ( )

Epigraph
Dedication
First words
Alisa Marchenko, captain of the Star Nomad, the only Nebula Rambler 880 in the galacy that hadn't been scrapped decades earlier, fiddled with the flight stick as the planet Perun grew larger on the view screen.
Quotations
Nothing like witnesses to help one rein in tendencies to moral ambiguity.
"War is ugly," he said quietly. "Even if your side comes out on top, nobody wins."
...But I guess it's easy to be honorable when your life is normal and your needs are met. It's when you get desperate that your morality really gets tested, isn't it?"
