Oh man, I remember reading this back when it first came out in 2011, and the rest of the books in the trilogy weren't even out yet, and I loved it. 
 I don't really remember a lot of what happened but I know I enjoyed reading it, and for some reason I thought there wasn't going to be sequels, but space opera stories have garnered my interest lately and I'm looking forward to rereading this and continuing with the rest of the trilogy.
