The duke is a surprisingly genial man whose court brings all the fanciness and fun of Persephone’s high society but little of the pretension—and, most importantly, he’s got the promise of more work. Some fine hospitalityObliged to stick around while Inara is with a client—and hoping to score future employment—the crew settles in. The liquor flows freely at court, and there’s food, entertainment, and comfortable lodgings to enjoy. Everyone is thrilled but Zoë. Her gut says something is off.A vicious massacreWhen the duke’s estate is attacked in the middle of the night, Mal sends Serenity to safety while he and Zoë investigate.

Goodreads review by Jackson on August 11, 2022

This was a rather average Firefly novel in my opinion. At it's core this is well written book and the characterisation is good, but the plot here is just too ruttin' similar to other books in this series, too similar to episodes of the show.

Ah, it’s that time again. I absolutely adore the Firefly books.

What I love is that you never really kno......more

Goodreads review by Noel on September 27, 2022

I LOVE Firefly but the other novels have been “meh” at most for me. This one was wonderful in comparison. Nothing super new plot wise but M.K.

Goodreads review by Rob on July 18, 2022

I think this is my favourite so far of the novels. Don't get me wrong, the others aren't bad at all, but this just had something extra, I could see the novel play out as an episode in my head. Every character had been written just as you remember from the tv show.......more
