Publisher Description
A heist by the Serenity crew goes badly wrong in a captivating original Firefly tie-in novel from the award-winning series by Titan Books.
City of sin
Neapolis: a desert city on planet Bethel where all manner of entertainment can be found: high-stakes gambling, luxurious hotels, exclusive clubs and any form of diversion imaginable may be had for a price. It’s the eve of the annual carnival: three days of decadent revelry, and Serenity arrives to take a security job, guarding a costly shipment.
An unattainable ransom
Tragedy strikes: the shipment is stolen, and the wealthy owner kidnaps Zoë and Book, holding them to ransom for the lost shipment’s value. If Mal can’t find the enormous sum of five hundred platinum by the next evening, both of them will be killed.
A race against time
As the carnival begins the crew must attempt the impossible, calling on contacts, calling in favours, and revealing hidden talents to save their crewmates’ lives. Meanwhile, the hostages have their own plans…
Customer Reviews
A might too many typos
Very enjoyable story with character voices that felt true to the series. My only nitpick was an overabundance of typos scattered all throughout. Missing words, too many words, hanging sentences… all would be forgiven but the price was the same as other books in the series, and why I took away one star.
Fine but not the best…
Well, first and foremost I love this series and want to support its continuation. This story started slow and bogged in the middle but redeemed in the end. All true fans love the ‘verse and enjoy being in it. I’d have to say, Una’s attempt here was decent but the Lovegrove books are superior. Grammar issues pervade with missing articles and such. However, if we want more books, we have to support the universe so buy it!
