Embers of War by Gareth Powell ( Embers of War #1)

Embers of War (Embers of War, #1)Embers of War by Gareth L. Powell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Really enjoyed this. I have been on a space opera kick lately and the cover and description drew me in. But the ideas and the writing make you stay.
It is perfect for fans of Martha Well’s Murderbot Diaries. Why?
For one a sentient, snarky battle cruiser named Trouble Dog. After the destruction of an entire civilization, and sick of war, Trouble Dog resigns her commission and goes to work for the House of Reclamation. The HoR devotes their life to rescuing others. Of course, any crew would be made up of outcasts as is the case here.
TroubleDog receives a distress call from a cruise liner near what is know as the Gallery. Planets that have been carved into art by some unknown civilization.
But all is not as it seems and deciding friend from for might be tricky.
No spoilers here. Just give it a try.
