Endling: 600 Years from Home
Project Oasis offers a fresh start: an opportunity to establish the first colony on Mars. Disenchanted with life on Earth, a young tech named Asha Reed joins the project, boards the CSV Frontier, and goes into cryogenic suspension to conserve resources on the long journey to her new home.
Asha comes out of cryo in deep space, light-years off course. She and a handful of survivors have just drifted into the Protectorate, an alien sector of the galaxy filled with dozens of intelligent species and hundreds of settled worlds.
"600 Years from Home" collects the first five episodes of space opera serial ENDLING. Join Asha Reed as she visits strange new worlds, foils assassination plots, goes on awkward dates with beautiful alien women, and searches for a way back home.

Interesting mix
I liked the pace of the story and the way the characters were introduced into the mix, theirs is a love hate relationship which seems to be working to form a good crew. Each individual is made up of different alien life forms who, despite their differences in appearance and biology, start to care for one another and have some funny moments in their interactions. It will be nice learning more about them and joining in their adventures just to see how much more mischief they can get into.

I first heard of this when I was shown the author's Bluesky posts promoting their books, and I was intrigued by the premise for this. It should be noted this is the first print volume of an on-going story initially published as a webnovel (if I'm comprehending that correctly) and the author is posting new episodes to the site for the series. It's been a while since I sank my teeth into a sci-fi story and I was itching for one, so I bought a physical copy to give it a try.
I'm really glad I did. I can already tell you this is a favorite new series of mine. These first five episodes are short but vibrant, and wonderfully imaginative. I love all the characters already, and the entire premise of episode 5 and the way it ties back to episode 1 took this from simply a read I was enjoying and having fun with to one I know I love. I highly recommend this, and I look forward to the upcoming episodes! (I plan to purchase a hardcover copy in addition to the paperback I have. Hopefully Walker will continue to publish episodes in print form volumes over time, because I'd really love to keep these. I may lend out my paperback copy to friends to borrow, because I'd really love to see more people giving this a chance!)

So I bought this at least a year ago on Payhip and apparently forgot about it afterwards but it's really really good! The main character, Asha, left earth bound for mars in a ship full of hundreds of other sort of colonists only to wake up 600 hundred years later to find earth under quarantine and to the possibility that not only could she never make it home, but that she could be the last human. Luckily she's ended up on a ship with some great characters that are a variety of aliens.
The writing is quick and fun even with surprising plot twists and the occasional seriousness of the story. It's not super long. The way I bought it, it came not as one ebook but as a series of shorts about 25 pages each (according to my nook) which makes them both easy to read as an adventure each and leaves me wanting more. I definitely recommend them if you want some good space adventure fun with some great characters (most of who, for once, aren't just male humans.)

Intriguing take one space exploration, with humor
Being the first to review a book is always tough. I will say I hate buying one without reviews, so here goes:
Fun omnisexual earth woman wakes up after her ship ends up far from its expected space path and long after she was suppose to wake. She is surrounded by interesting aliens, and must learn to navigate around her new 'universe'. I quite recommend this mostly fun twist on the man out of time trope of science fiction.
