Bryan Redeagle reviewed Cascade Failure by L. M. Sagas
A Found Family Adventure in Space
5 stars
I'm not even sure where to start with this one. The book focuses on the crew of the Ambit, a ship that's part of a peace-keeping organization.
Each member is a delight to read about, and the author switches perspectives to get a sampling of the characters' internal thoughts and motivations. Each one has feelings and beliefs and a history that makes them feel like real people. Some of the personality quirks feel a little cliche if you think about it too hard, but it didn't detract for me from how much I cared for them by the end of the book.
The author did a fantastic job pulling my emotions this way and that while the crew traveled the galaxy. I strongly recommend giving this one a read.
