Fortune's Pawn by Rachel Bach
A promising young mercenary's future gets thrown into jeopardy after a fateful encounter with an alien in the start to a propulsive space opera series perfect for fans of Firefly and Killjoys."Devi is hands-down one of the best sci-fi heroines I've read in a long time." RT Book Reviews
Devi Morris isn't your average mercenary. She has plans. Big ones. And a ton of ambition. It's a combination that's going to get her killed one day -- but not just yet.
That is, until she just gets 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, so much so that one year of security work under its captain is equal to five years everywhere else. With odds like that, 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 on this ship might be more than even Devi can handle.
Rachel Bach aspired to be both an author and a supervillain as a child. Unfortunately, supervillainy proved to be surprisingly difficult to break into, so she focused on literature instead, and everything worked out perfectly. She now resides in Athens, Georgia, with her hyperactive toddler, patient husband, overflowing library, and overweight wiener dog. Rachel also works as Rachel Aaron, a fantasy author.
