This one keeps popping up in my recommendations, usually described as being like Firefly, and I finally got a copy in this year’s Hugo voter’s packet (the 3rd book and the series have been nominated). I can say that yes, it IS like Firefly (not as much shooting), and I enjoyed it very much. It’s light and fun, much lighter than what I’ve been reading lately, so that was a pleasant surprise. It’s not heavy on plot – there’s an episodic feel to it which probably also led to the Firefly comparisons, but it’s nice.

I read that one last year when you told me it was on the Hugo list.
It’s a nice sweet story. Yeah, not a lot of action but mostly a work-a-day tale of people trying to get by. It’s kind of like what Alien would have been like if, you know, they hand’t picked up the Alien.
Her other books are good reads too.

That’s a good description of it!
