Review: Milk Run by Nathan Lowell

The good

• Fun new universe. It feels like a real place, with its own politics, economics, and hardships, rather than some futuristic sci fi utopia.

• Interesting characters. Most of them feel like real, fully-fleshed out people.

• Some neat sci fi ideas.

• A little bit of deduction work.

The not so good

• The deduction work isn’t particularly interesting and doesn’t give the reader a chance to really participate.

• Not a whole lot really happens in the plot. Although there is some murder and mystery in the background, the plot primarily focuses on a few deliveries across space, a bit like reading about an outer space version of FedEx.

Rating: 4 stars
