I received a free digital copy from the author/publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest feedback.

Girl From Above: Betrayal is the first installment in a series of short stories about a rogue synthetic human and her encounter with Captain Caleb Sheppard, an ex-inmate of the notorious prison Asgard. Synth/ #1001 is on a mission to kill and brings a lot of trouble Caleb's way when she becomes a stowaway on his ship.

This was a fun story full of action and it was quick and pleasurable to read. I really liked the backstory about Caleb Sheppard and his exploits, as well as his relationships with Synth, Fran and Haley. Synth was a complex character with warring emotions and I really enjoyed seeing how she dealt with them. The story ended on a bit of a cliff-hanger and I will definitely continue on with the series as I can't wait to see what's next for Synth and Caleb, not to mention what Fran is going to do next! This was a strong 3-3.5 stars for me.
