Human still live in this galaxy except for a few adventurous ones who venture out into Alliance space. Reese was born on Mars. Now she has fled from the life that was planned for her there and is trying to make a living as a trader. It isn't going well. She was bailed out once. She's almost broke again.
Now she has to go rescue an Eldritch who fell into the hands of slavers. The Eldritch are a reclusive race. They don't leave their planets much because they are highly empathetic. Too many beings makes it hard for them. Everything Reese knows about them comes from the romance novels she gets monthly that feature Eldritch as mysterious heroes. It turns out that Eldritch are much more annoying than in the books.
If you liked the interactions of the crew in The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet you might like this book too.
I liked it so much that I read the rest of the books in the series too.This review was originally posted on Based On A True Story
