Cole and Anspach launch another military space opera within their Wayward Galaxy universe, trading narrative depth for kinetic entertainment. The familiar setting and search-and-rescue framing provide novelty, while the characters bristle with energy and rapid-fire banter, echoing the spirit of their earlier work. The result is exuberant, chaotic action punctuated by audacious rescues, though the prose lacks the refinement and immersion achieved in their more polished novels. It succeeds as light diversion—spirited rather than resonant. 4/5 stars.
