I highly recommend the audiobook. Listening to Gaiman talk about his favorite authors and the impact libraries had on his life and how important they are to society, were my favorite parts of this collection.

I'm not sure I really have any words worthy of saying. This was thought provoking, heart wrenching, and beautifully done. This offers a perspective that's incredibly needed and necessary.

The artwork was beautifully done! Great panels with wonderful use of color. The story, however, felt too rushed for my taste. Characters, world building, and plot didn't unfold and coax me into another world. It was more like a slap in the face. It just left me feeling like I didn't care about anyone or what was happening to them. There were interesting concepts overall, I just don't think this first volume gave them enough room to grow into something meaningful. Still looking forward to more.

This character driven book was a joyous romp. There were many times the story had me questioning my own biases. The recurring themes here are empathy and acceptance: different philosophies, sociocultural upbringings, and belief systems coexisting on a ship in space. Even with their differences, these characters end up being a strong family unit. A good reminder we're all living creatures floating through time and space. We shouldn't be so prone to violence or quick to pass judgment.

These were really uplifting... now I just need an alarm clock with Miranda wishing me gmorning and gnight everyday.

3.5 rounding up, listened to the audiobook it had a good narrator that cracked me up several times. Overall, this may have been too inane for my tastes.

This was such a great read. Clark was able to transport me to this time period with little effort. And his kick ass gun and sword wielding characters were multidimensional and sculpted into people who felt fully alive. All of this done in less than 200 pages. Not to mention the great symbolism.
