Henry Blue is a Spacer. His family facing financial ruin, he takes a desperate gamble and steals the family' oldest freighter, the Charlie B., to make a run with a crew that no one else would want… to a restricted planet, Earth. Meanwhile on Earth, a Terran will be needed to both save a starship freight company and be the catalyst to solve a mystery that might bring to a distant world that which it needs most… hope. Welcome to the first book in the Terran Catalyst series.
Despite poor editing and horrible formatting on my Kindle, this was a great book. Loved the characters and world. It was complex so I would have loved an appendix to explain the various factions. Hope there is a second book in the series coming soon.
The last book by this author was much better. This one felt like a knock-off or a rush job. It rambled a lot. I had to keep going back and reread sections to understand what was happening. I'm not going to read any more in this series.
