Wildly imaginative space opera that sort of goes too fast to build any connection to the cast. Fun but flawed.

You'll like it if you like space opera, it wasn't for me. Also the blurb said there would be psychic cats, and they were only really in the first chapter

I really enjoyed the characters and the humour. Psychic cats, an evil syndicate called The Fridge (which seems like a silly name until you realize they stick their hostages in cryo, kind of like Han Solo), lots of action, a bit of alien sex and a crazy munchkin alien dickhead called the Glorious Apotheosis who goes around blowing up planets in pursuit of the heroine, who hurt his feelings by refusing to join his harem. All in all, lots of fun!
