About this listen
Mal and the crew take receipt of a sealed crate that they are being paid to transport to Badger, no questions asked. Yet once their cargo is safely stowed aboard, River insists Mal should "space" it out of the airlock, for it contains, she insists, ghosts.
With supplies running low, the crew desperately needs another payday but soon finds itself paralyzed by hallucinations of their deepest hopes and desires, so vivid they cannot be distinguished from reality. River is the only one unaffected. She desperately tries to awaken her crew mates, while the fantasies turn sour and the ship begins to spin out of control.

Weakest story in the series so far.
I'm absolutely loving the Firefly book series, but that being said I felt this was the weakest story so far. That's not to say it was bad; it still offered some excellent insight into the characters, building where the TV series left off and bridging the gap to the film. But it just dragged a little for me, lacking the pace of previous instalments.
James Anderson Foster's performance was faultless as ever, capturing the tone and intonation of every character wonderfully, especially Mal. On to the next book!

An excellent listen
An excellent way to glimpse into the minds of the characters and understand a little more about them such as their desires, wants and needs. A unique way to develop the characters and the verse they inhabit. I thoroughly recommend listening to this audiobook.

Considerably darker than the others …
I really enjoyed the story, but it is far darker than the other stories, and grim too. You know the ending, but it’s uncomfortable listening in a good way.
More and more continuing to expand upon every character’s backstory, and much more of a precursor to the film.

Odd but interesting
This was a unique read but very interesting. Seeing how the characters lives were different. I'm trying to be as spoiler free as possible. It was full of twists and shocks which made it all so exciting

Hard to follow.
Didn't enjoy this one, story really wasn't Firefly and not author's usual quality. Good narration.

Loved the premise
The idea behind this story is interesting, but it felt as though it was reaching just a little too hard at times. I found the voice performance lacked authenticity this time around. Shame - I’ve enjoyed being back around the ‘verse.

Shiny
The crew and the Verse is back. I no longer feel sad that there was only one TV series. This book and the entire series is true to form. If you are a Firefly fan then this is for you. If you are not a Firefly fan then watch the TV series and listen to these Audible books, you will then be a Firefly fan. Thanks to everyone who made this possible.

Somewhat derivative... :(
I enjoyed James Anderson Foster's other efforts far more, stick to his first two Firefly books. I felt like they expanded on the world and characters, on the other hand, this story feels unnecessary and was languorous in it's telling.
