I did a bullet point review on my blog but here I will try to keep it more along the normal lines. So, I loved the premise of the book and it delivered in spades. I absolutely loved that the main character, Opal, was a gutsy and resourceful. There is so much action in this one and that made me want to read it in one sitting. I couldn't, of course but the wish was there. The AI Clarissa made this book really delightful because she sometimes stole the show with her sassy remarks. The sheer bravery/ stubbornness of Opal when confronted with forces much bigger and stronger than hers.was absolutely brilliant to read.

If I had to pick a few problems with it, it would be why Opal chose to find the Lost Ship comes far too late in the book. Then there's also the fact that I didn't know it was not a stand-alone! I need the next book now! I think I wanted more social interaction in the novel? As in, Opal mostly converses with the AI or for a while to the military people. I wanted some normal conversations, even flashbacks could have worked.

But overall, I loved the plot, the pace as well as the characters! 10/10 would recommend to the fans of science fiction, military science fiction.
