5.0
I also felt like the pacing in this installment worked really well, making it a quick and compelling read. We pick up right where we left off at the end of book two, with significant action and emotional revelation before 50% and an extended resolution to the conflict that felt exactly right for the series and our characters.
And the Presger translator! The levity the Presger bring is excellent, and I was laughing out loud every time the translator entered the conversation.
Ultimately, this conclusion brought all the sentient ship moments I love - the developing self-awareness, the deep and unwavering loyalty, the stubborn insistence on respect, the passive aggressive rebuffs, the new emotional revelations. God I loved this.
"...And maybe it isn't that ships don't love other ships, it's that ships love people who could be Captains."
