This was a nice little glimpse into what was going on with Bobbie between books 2 and 3, as told through the eyes of her moody teenage nephew. I could have done with less of the moody teenage perspective, but it was an interesting little story nonetheless.

I really enjoyed this book! It gave a nice perspective on the universe of The Expanse for people living on solid ground and living relatively normal lives rather than ones in complete turmoil. I listened to the audiobook, which is how I've been consuming all of the books in this series, and this one had a different narrator, which I didn't love. I hope the next novel in the series has the original narrator come back.

I liked this, and since I'm out of the full-length novels to read, I'm just happy to have ANY return to this universe. My library ebook system doesn't have all of the novellas, so I've only read a few of them.
