Breakout by Ann Aguirre

The final book in the Dred trilogy, it was obvious there was a lot of backstory I'd missed, but after a steep curve I was mostly on board.
Dred, an empathic vigilante imprisoned for killing other killers, is now roaming the prison ship Perdition with a handful of mercenaries and allied soldiers, teaming up against Silence, a madwoman with her own death cult of assassins.
Sound intriguing? Did I mention rodents of unusual size, aliens, minions, building an escape shuttle from junk and a touch of romance?
Through Dred's relationship with Jael, his history is revealed; it's a terrible history and one which he fears may never leave him, but she has brought him past faceless killer to a man who can still trust, still love, still hope for a happy ending. Maybe they can all hope.
