Firefly - Life Signs | James Lovegrove

Another Firefly book, they‘ve been perfect audiobooks for this busy season. This one takes the crew to a frozen planet that‘s home to a prison and search of a doctor to save Inara‘s life. Simon, Zoe, Mal and Jayne are thrown together while River, Kaylee, and Wash go toe-to-toe with an Alliance cruiser.

I've loved Firefly for years but hadn‘t read the books. I was pleasantly surprised that it maintained the tone of the show. They managed to capture the characters' ticks & personalities. It picks up where the show ends, but before the movie takes place. Mal finds himself in trouble & Zoey is left in charge. I loved learning more about Mal & Shepherd's history before we meet them. I'll read more of the series & maybe re-watch the show again.

JanuarieTimewalker13 Loved the show!!! Not sure if I saw the film. 1w
AvidReader25 @JanuarieTimewalker13 the movie came out a few years after the show was canceled. It was excellent and explained so many things that were left unanswered. 1w
JanuarieTimewalker13 Ohhh, I‘ll have to look into it. I was such a fan I purchased Malcolm‘s medallion necklace on Amazon…it‘s so cute but it was pretty goofy for a 50 yo to buy that…I was OOC on AMZN back in the day. Lol 1w

JanuarieTimewalker13 Actually it was a dog tag set, I found it. Lol. I only kept one medallion and the box. 1w
AvidReader25 @JanuarieTimewalker13 I love that! It was such a travesty that the show was canceled. 1w
JanuarieTimewalker13 Yes, I greatly enjoyed it!! Had a crush on Malcolm. Lol 1w

Another book finished for #SciFiSummer. This was a great first book in the Firefly series and I'm looking forward to reading the others.

Firefly - Coup de Grce | Una McCormack

? I ordinarily love everything Una McCormack does, but this was disappointing. I don't know if maybe I let the narration (Foster's was great; Lawrence's was grating) sully my enjoyment of the story, or if the story was just meh, but whatever it was I didn't love it. And does Shepherd Book always call young women "little girl" and I've just never noticed? Cause that was damn annoying. ? Glad I didn't waste an audible credit on this one.

AvidReader25 Are there other Firefly novels you‘ve liked? I loved the show, but haven‘t read the books. 14mo
Traci1 @AvidReader25 yes! This was book 8. I loved (gave 5 stars to) books 1,2, 5, and 6. The others were ok, although I didn't care for book 4. You can read them in any order, but Big Damn Hero is book one and is fantastic. I think book 2, The Magnificent Nine, was my favorite. 14mo
AvidReader25 Oh perfect! I‘ll start with Big Damn Hero. Thank you! 14mo

This puts the romp in space romp with that signature Firefly western bent. What I expected and not half bad for the pulp and spin-off that it is!

⭐️⭐️⭐️
This was an ok backstory of Shepherd Book, but it was a bit odd. It was told in a backwards fashion, and there wasn't a lot of meat to the story. The art was decent. Overall, it was a very short not bad way to pass a little time, but it's not something I'd seek out.

Book 1/2 finished for #20in4 (easy finish at 59 pages)
@Andrew65

KathyWheeler I hate that this is only okay. I love Shepherd Book and want a story about him to be really good. (edited) 1y
Traci1 @KathyWheeler it was really just too short. You'd have 2-4 pages and then it'd say 2 years earlier, then another 2 pages and 6 years earlier, and on like that. You got a teeny view of several periods of time in his life. I just wanted more to it, I guess. 1y
Andrew65 Well done 👏👏👏 1y
