Any additional comments?
The premise is a young man joins the crew of an interstellar trading ship. This is a situation bursting with promise! Interesting trade problems with bizarre aliens, pirate attacks, engine failure, plague and mutiny, all just off the top of my head.
Instead the author fills the entire book with the excruciating, minuscule details of buying and selling mundane items. ***YAWN***
How to clean a large copper coffee pot was one of the action highlights of this sorry excuse for a novel.
My Aunt Bertha’s garage sales are more exciting than this book!
