2.0

Too misogynistic, patriarchal, and boring. There is infinite potential for a space opera and this one chose cops, guns, thugs, guns, rape, bombs, detectives, guns, prostitutes, guns... you get the picture.

I prefer my sci-fi to be as imaginative, adventurous, and action-packed as Brandon Sanderson's or as innovative, interesting, and intelligent as Becky Chambers'.

Medium-slow pace. Enjoyed the nature horror elements a lot but didn’t feel super invested in the characters/didn’t quite do it for me. 

Currently planning to try out books 2 and 3, but not thinking this is a series finisher for me, unfortunately.
