3.5 stars. I’m looking forward to diving more into this series and getting to know the characters more. A strong start to a series, but too short at this point for me to be smitten.

I love Buck. I love Nadia.
This is a totally quirky cast of characters and I literally laughed out loud more times than I can count reading some of the banter between Al & Buck. Al goes on tangents sometimes in the best way, because often the stories he starts to tell give some insight into the world or the history and give a better understanding while being hilarious.

I love that this book is one I could recommend to female or male readers, and I love a MC that is up there in years and life experience.
