A review by sea_caummisar
The Hematophages by Stephen Kozeniewski

I couldn't tell you the last time I read a sci fi horror. It's 2020 and I'm trying to expand my reading. At least this one was a bloody good mess of a sci-fi read.
At first I was overwhelmed by the futuristic jargon and space stuff. A quarter into the book, I was digging it. At the end, I wished it wasn't over.
Let's recap this story. In an all female future, Paige, a historian, is taking her first trip in space. The mission is to find a space shipwreck and salvage it.
Along the way there are space pirates. When they get to their destination, there's even worse dangers.
Paige was a kick butt main character that I grew to love. I absolutely loved the end of the book. I don't want to give away any spoilers, but my eyes kinda ache right now.
I want to thank the author for a free review copy of this book.
