I'm on the fence with this one. I like the story but I didn't like the whole "new species" spin. Wondering where we are going with the whole Marcus Model storyline. They weren't mentioned at all in this one and we know there are about 3 more ships of them floating around space somewhere. 
 I seriously had to work to get over Blackie's stupid ass name. Really? That's the best name you could do? "You are covered in bruises and are all black and white so we'll call you BLackie." REALLY!?!?!?! Let's skip over Bruiser, Blue, or whatever and go straight to Blackie. **huge fucking eye roll**
