Book Review: Finder

Finder
Suzanne Palmer
Science fiction

Look, I can't even pretend to be objective about this one. Suzanne is a friend of mine. Moreover, I had the privilege of reading and commenting on an earlier draft of Finder. So I'll just say that this is a fun, fast-paced, engaging space opera with:

  • A cool setting
  • Excellent worldbuilding
  • Great, fast pacing
  • Space War!
  • An appealing reluctant-hero protagonist
  • An eminently hateable villain
  • Aliens
  • Really weird aliens
  • Offbeat humor (we are talking, after all, about the author of the short story "Zombie Cabana Boy")
  • Meatcubes
No, I'm not going to explain the last one. Read the book.
