About this listen
The fifth original novel from the much-loved space western Firefly, produced with Joss Whedon as consulting editor, set between the TV series and the movie Serenity.
Deadly disease
Months after Inara leaves Serenity, Mal and the crew finally learn the reason for her sudden departure: She is dying of a terminal illness. It is Kiehl’s Myeloma, a form of cancer that’s supposedly incurable, and Inara has very little time left.
A disreputable scientist
Through their shock and despair, rumors of a cure reach the crew. Expert Esau Weng is said to have developed a means to treat Inara’s condition, but he has been disgraced and incarcerated for life on a notorious Alliance prison planet.
An infamous prison
On Atata planet, inmates are abandoned with no guards and left to survive as best they can. What’s more, terraforming the planet did not take properly, so the world is a frozen wasteland. To save Inara, the Serenity crew must infiltrate the prison....

Mighty fine
Good story, beautifully read. Lovegrove does make River into a jedi with magical powers, which, personally I didn't like. But overall worth a listen.

Great story
Another great adventure for the serenity crew, after being a fan of the TV series you can easily picture the scenes and dialogue between them, again such a shame they are so shot why an unabridged version? It’s almost like it was a screenplay script when the series was cancelled 20 years ago, still 5/5

firefly at its best
Action-packed with colourful back-stories and character development. Shame the narrator repeatedly misses the correct emphasis

An entertaining ride
I loved this from start to finish. Plenty of action and thrills and all in the style we've come to expect from Firefly books.
I Definitely recommend listening to it.

Excellent
Excellent book. I was hoping for more with the ending, it felt a little rushed for my liking. However, still a great read in any case.

Very enjoyable
Another good Firefly story. Great narration. A word of warning- one of the main themes involves terminal cancer.

Nice return to the FireFly Verse.
Brought the characters of Firefly, especially Mal alive nicely,the language and manners of speech. A good adventure for the crew, bit standard, but enjoyable enough. Very good voice work by the narrator, pretty much what made it worth the time.

Tie-in fiction at its best
Often these sort of tie-in books are one level above the worst type of fanfic, but this book is actually really superb. The characters and actions all ring true and there's plenty of good Firefly action going on. Dialogue sounds like it comes from the voices of the characters. I had no trouble believing that this happened in the same show I watched on telly. It's well narrated too. I'm happy that Firefly could live on a bit longer in this way.
