Didn't 3nd where I wanted it to, but at least it answered some questions after Bioware took Andromeda out back and shot it.

Fun to see what happened with the Quarian ark! The DLC we’ll never get to play... sigh. Some great funny moments here with an interesting cast of characters. Gleefully: I loved spending more time with the elcor!

The first half was a bit slow, mostly because I couldn’t remember what the different races looked like. But I did enjoy the plot and the characters were all unique and fun to read about. Also fuck yeah for gay aliens!

Anax Theron is my favorite. She’s smart, coy, mysterious, and a lesbian. The way she interacts with each character is unique. Her character development is perfect and as you continue reading you start asking what’s reality and what’s fiction? You get more questions than you do answers.
