If you grew up watching Star Trek or Babylon 5, this book was written to continue those adventures.

I rated this a solid 4.5 stars, as it started with a battle that instantly got you in your feelings and from then until the end, Brit Knight, the author, kept that pace and excitement all the way up!

Bishop the FMC, and title character, is a fighting, rumbling product of her tough life. Always ready to share her punch first philosophy, it was easy for me to get attached to her, and understand why she was the way she was. If I ever need a rescue and I can call a fictional character, I would be fine if I called on her! LOL!

Another delicious aspect to this story was the found family. There were some friends from her past, some news ones, and then a couple surprises that made my jaw slacken as I read. I mean the book just keeps you on your toes, with events happening, decisions going to hell, and so much awesome action. 

BUT!!!!! What really got me in the gut, was the villain. I will not give any spoilers. All I will say, is that the villain in this book, the monstrous enemy...will make your brain pause and start to rearrange itself as more is revealed along the way. To me that elevates this book from good to great!

With easy writing, and descriptions that make you feel like a part of the team, I really have nothing but joy from reading this book.
This was an exciting swim into the moral grey of humanity, one that left a helluva impression.

If you have never tried Sci-Fi before but want a good way to start....welcome, this book is it. 
If you love Sci-Fi and want one of those stories that makes you disappear into it....this book is it.

Read this one y'all...promise you will not regret it.
