The arc on Opera had my heart squeezed as all members of the crew had different ways of coping with the harsh environment. Ariadne's reaction squeezed my heart and I loved how important it was for the crew to minimise their footprint to the worlds they visited.

 I really enjoyed every part of this book, cover to cover. It's impressive how the author was able to fit an excellent story, excellent setting, and excellent characters with excellent arcs in such a short book. While I wouldn't necessarily consider it "feel good" sci fi as I've seen some other reviewers call it, I thought the message was very poignant as a realistic near-future scenario.
