The whole time I was reading this I was thinking that this would be a story that Disney would buy the rights to and make into a franchise of movies. Then I realized that this was actually published by Disney so... nailed it! That's either a good thing or a bad thing depending on your views on Disney. I'm not personally a big Disney fan but they do do great work so it's not a kiss of death for me. 
 It has a kind of Firefly-esque feel that made it a fun adventure story. There's a crew of misfits aboard a cargo ship in the fringes of space. There's a government conspiracy. There's freaking space pirates and contract killers. There's budding romances between opposites. There's thrilling escapes.... OK there's nothing "kind of" about it. This really drew heavily on the premise of Firefly. Luckily for me, I really enjoyed Firefly so hence I liked this story too. (view spoiler)[ When Doran uses the alias of Darrow the Red, I groaned out loud. Come on... I'm ok with paying homage to another series (IE: Red Rising by Pierce Brown) but that was just silly. It was a little to spot on. (hide spoiler)] 
 Overall, I want to give this 3.5 stars. It was definitely good but it wasn't great. I'll more than likely pick up the next book in the series when it comes out.
