If you’re a fan of classical, go into space with lots &
lots of guns, SF you will probably like Fortune’s Pawn by Rachel Bach. This book follows the
adventures of Devi Morris, a mercenary from a culture that worships armor
(versatile & spacesuit like). To advance her chances of being invited to
join the elite King’s guard she signs on with the Glorious Fool, a trade ship
with a reputation for getting into trouble.
Devi discovers that the captain of this ship is more then he lets on,
falls for the cook who is also not what he seems, and does a lot of fighting
for the ship. This book is clearly part
of a series so it leaves lots of unanswered questions but it does provide an
entertaining read & leaves you looking forward to the next book.
