Fortune'S Pawn Av Rachel Bach

Fans of Firefly and Elizabeth Moon will lap up this action-packed military science fiction series. Welcome to the start of a thrilling new space adventure, starring female mercenary Deviana Morris . . .Deviana Morris isn''t your average mercenary. She has plans. Big ones. And a ton of ambition. One of those is going to get her killed one day - but not just yet. Not when she just got a job on a tiny trade ship with a nasty reputation for surprises. The Glorious Fool isn''t misnamed: it likes to get into trouble. And with a reputation for bad luck that makes one year as security detail on this ship equal to five years everywhere else - Devi knows she''s found the perfect way to get the jump on the next part of her Plan. But the Fool doesn''t give up its secrets without a fight, and one year might be more than even Devi can handle.Review for FORTUNE''S PAWN:''This book kicked ass . . . I just loved it!'' - FELICIA DAY''Devi is hands-down one of the best sci-fi heroines I''ve read in years'' - RT BOOK REVIEWS''Rollicking space opera starring a tough, sexy, armor-clad space chick . . . [Bach] does a nice job of painting a scenario that, if familiar - think the space marines of the Alien franchise or the motley crew of Firefly - allows her plenty of room for action. And action aplenty is what she delivers . . . Lots of fun'' - KIRKUS REVIEWS
