Krimson Run by Julia Huni and Craig MartelleMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Evading Certain Death Whilst Having a ‘Mom-Bod’
If you liked The Space Janitor Series, you’ll enjoy this just as much. It has the same lightness of touch, humour and incredulity at what the universe has thrown at the poor protagonist.
Quin is a retired Lt with the Federation. She’s married to a current officer and they have two children. Quin loves her children passionately, her husband less so. When the base they are living on is evacuated she is separated from her children and then abandoned. Dubbed a Krimson Empire spy, she will do anything in her power to get her children back, no matter the cost.
I loved that Quin had a Mom-Bod and barely remembered the military training she had, but she still stepped up when she needed to and her old command presence reasserted itself. She’s a strange mixture of confident and assertive in a professional setting and submissive in a private one.
I loved the supporting characters in this book a lot. Tony is a fantastic friend to Quin and goes above and beyond to help her and her kids. His family of criminals is entertaining and tightly woven together.
This is a really promising start to a new series and the world building is pretty tight, with hints of what’s to come. I can’t wait to see what happens in the next book, despite the HFN ending.
