While many parts of this book were fantastic and thrilling, there were aspects of the book that were very grating. The way the authors write women specifically was the hardest to overcome in order to enjoy the book. In one instance, Amira commented on the breasts of the ship's captain when she was running in a way that was so clearly written by a man that I felt icky. There were only two female characters in the entire book and one of the men each fell in love with them. They seemingly had no real purpose except to drive forward the character and the plot that men were leading. That being said, I really loved the drama within the crew and Glinn who seemingly knew everything until the end. I would love to read future books, but I might not stick with it if the women in the book remain so poorly written.
