Firmament #9
Intoxication
Something's not quite right.
Outfitted with the first hyper-warp drive, the Surveyor prepares to test it on a groundbreaking mission. Andi is cautiously optimistic when she learns that her beloved cousin Crash will finally have an official place on the ship.
With new technology, however, comes new challenges.
Another ship arises seemingly out of nowhere to challenge the Surveyor’s accomplishments, and the more Andi learns about everything transpiring around her, the more convinced she becomes that something is not as it should be.
Crash has a hidden struggle that could cost him his career. Their interstellar rival may threaten not only the ship, but time and space itself. Burdened with alarming secrets she never asked for, how can one medical student shoulder the fate of her ship—and perhaps even her galaxy?

I was so excited to buddy-read this one with The Very Awesome Mikayla, especially after the sweet note at the beginning of the book. <3 It's always a joy to be back with these characters, but especially this time because of where things were left off.
Andi was her usual fabulous self, with more growing to do, and I think I particularly related to her in this one to my chagrin. ;) It was good to see Crash again, and the pain of loving a family member despite themselves rang true. I loved Sage too. Also, it terrifies me to see the Doctor getting older. O.o. (Please, no more loss!)
I can't wait to see what the Surveyor family does next!
CW: lying, alcoholism.

Full review coming when I can be coherent and not give spoilers. But it's amazing!

I loved this one. I must admit to not understanding the technical side of it, even with the explanations. Buy the story was amazing, and Andis growth was really fun to watch.
