This book was quite charming. Parts of it reminded me of the Wayfarers series by Becky Chambers, but more crass and with a lot more action. I especially found the way translation was done in the early stages of the book to be really intriguing and inventive by the author. I’ll definitely be continuing the series. Biggest complaint however was that the ending felt a smidge rushed and definitely abrupt.
