Niko Larson is retired from the military. Along with her crew they run a restaurant on a space station at the edge of the universe. No longer having to deal with the Hive Mind, they are more concerned with the food critic who could possibly make or break therm. When the station is attacked, they flee for their lives aboard a ship that is more alive than not. During their travels they learn more about the ship and vice versa. Then Niko's past comes after her and she must face it head on as she tries to keep her crew safe.
Starting out with this book, I was eager. I enjoyed it for most part but did have a couple issues. The pluses - great diverse characters, horrific space pirates, lots of action. The minuses - bland menu for a noted restaurant, lagging in places, and an odd set up with Niko and an ex-lover. All in all, I enjoyed it. I see a second book is coming out soon and I will definitely read it.
