Summary
A breakneck adventure for the Serenity crew in the seventh original novel tying into the beloved Firefly series from creator Joss Whedon
A simple job
Serenity is bound for the planet Kerry with a hold full of sealed unidentified cargo for the planet’s highest-ranking nobleman. 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 hospitality
Obliged 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 massacre
When the duke’s estate is attacked in the middle of the night, Mal sends Serenity to safety while he and Zoë investigate. What they find turns the whole story of Kerry upside-down. Revolution is brewing, and each of them will have to decide where to make their stand, even if it lands them on opposite sides …

Just, perfect.
What can I say? Every single one of these audiobooks is so visual in descriptors that you can actually see Mal and the gang playing out the story like your own private theatre.
The characterisation of our most beloved crew is honestly perfection. Every subtle (and the not so subtle) reference to the show from the classic 'I'm trying not to punch you' Mal smile, to Rivers cryptic babbling to every Mandarin curse flung out to the verse... it's just so..... Firefly! I don't know what else to say. It's the Season 2 we were all so brutally denied. Thank you so much to every writer, publisher and to James Anderson Foster narrator for bringing these stories to life.
On that note - if James ever tries quit or get replaced, so help me there'll be a riot. His performance of every single character is tone, inflection and quirk perfect. Incredibly, he even manages to sound EXACTLY like Mal, Jayne and Book. Honestly, just give the man every raise he ever asks for - please!!

Getting boring now
I don’t know about anybody else but I’m getting sick of the stories in these books revolving around saving a town of downtrodden peasants, and they’ve already announced the next book in the series will be doing it too.
Please bring back James Lovegrove to save the books from tedium

Terrible writing, paper-thin characters and plot
This is easily the worst of the recent novels. The plot is tired, the villain is a laughably one-dimensional caricature, and the entire thing reads like bad fan fiction. It's absolutely terrible, skip it.

Capers and escapades
Another great story, with predictably awesome narration and good but slightly sad ending. Feels like this fits just before the film I think.

Just like an episode from the series
Really well written. Evokes all the excitement, danger, camaraderie and humour from the Firefly series. It is so good to hear new stories featuring the characters and do well written and told. I loved it!
