The Immortality Thief by Taran Hunt

This was really good, and if it would have been a little less repetitive, it would have been a five star read. I was glad to get to the end of the book and realize that there would be another one.

Wow, this had everything I wanted - except for a touch of romance, but it didn't promise me that so I can't complain

This book was so much fun(especially for someone who enjoys sci-fi and horror). Even though it’s 600 pages, I was excited to pick it up and the pacing kept me satisfied despite its size. I absolutely love the characters and how they developed together. The author did a wonderful and subtle job of making me care for each of them as they travelled through the ship. I’m looking forward to book 2!

A sci-fi adventure with elements of horror for fans of Tomb Raider and Indiana Jones that will delight readers who love to nerd out over linguistics.

If you've been craving a lively, unputdownable romp on a spaceship with characters who will steal your heart and a found family that'll give you the warm fuzzies, The Immortality Thief is the book you need. It's a novel about many things - the ethics of science, the value of communication, and the hard work that must go into peace in the wake of a war that's been going on long enough - but it's also a warm and good-humoured tale about a group of strangers forced to work together in a haunted house in space.

The characters are loveable, the plot never stops moving, and Indigo is my everything.

Nope !

Writing is bad , story is …. whatever is the most appropriate word here. It is damp down to prolong the book with some unnecessary background stories. I wish it could have a better editor as the main idea seemed interesting.
