This is the first of the Far Reaches series that I’ve read, so I’m not sure if this fits into a series or is an independent story.

The idea of a ship as narrator is fun, and I love how it kept emphasizing that it was a fully autonomous and independent being. Cutting off its creators nearly as soon as it was able also gave me a laugh.

I liked this, and I’ll seek out the first five if they are available. It is a quick read with some deep ideas about the nature of humanity and the importance of life itself.
