Summary
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.

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.

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.

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.

Good story. Author has done better in prior books
Be in no doubt. This is a good book. It's more good at the start and at the end when we are dealing with reality. The middle part dragged on considerably. I was at times bored by it but stick with it, as I am a Firefly fan. It improved again toards the end when things got real again.
This is the third book by this author, writing Firefly stories. I hope he does more. It's clear he knows his stuff and I look forward to more coming. I have my fingers crossed.

Very good story, just lacked humour and wit
I really enjoyed this book, but it didn't feel like peak Firefly which always had good banter between the characters and a lot of humour, even at its most sombre points. I would still highly recommend it, its my favourite Firefly book so far.
