The Salvage Crew by Yudhanjaya Wijeratne

4.0

Not really a fun romp in space like its oft compared to Firefly, but the framework of the story (Buddhist philosophy/poetry) was really interesting to read, and the ending really packed a punch! I was hoping for a bit more likeable characters and less death, more explorations of strange alien artifacts and less a bleak treatise on survival, but the ending really took my breath away and again, really like the inspiration for the background framework of how the main character's mind processed the world around it.
