review 1: What I liked:I loved The Girls from Alcyone so this was an immediate buy for me, and I wasn't disappointed. Another exciting adventure with the lovely, kick-ass Sigrid, a space station, betrayal, and technology from the super-advanced to the seriously dodgy. It fulfilled all my main wishlist items for scifi/space opera. What I didn't like:I can't really say there was anything I didn't like, aside from it was over too quickly. The only reason I couldn't rate this five stars like TGfA is that it just didn't have the same emotional punch as the novel, and I felt I had to reflect that in my rating. In conclusion:As an addition to Caffrey's universe, this is a quick, enjoyable read, and long enough to give you a decent taster of his work. I would personally, however, recommend ... morereading The Girls from Alcyone first because of the complexity of the world building, and references made to events in the novel during Merchantman. Give me more!
review 2: I have been invested in Cary Caffrey's world since I first read about Sigrid and the gang in The Girls from Alcyone, so I was thrilled when I found out that this story was coming out.Caffrey lives up to his bestselling Science Fiction Adventure name with Merchantman. Tons of action and world building, all in his great immersive style.This is one for when you want to escape and have some fun! less
