When I’m not caring for my baby daughter, Alis, or running a super-secret spy mission for the Consortium forces, I’m reading science fiction!

Title: Captain Wu – Starship Nameless
Author: Patrice Fitzgerald & Jack Lyster
Series: Starship Nameless
Patrice Fitzgerald and Jack Lyster, with their starship nameless series, nailed it for me. The main character is a bad-ass grandma! I can relate to her, for sure 😉
This story has perfectly crafted dialogue that pulls you in to each character. And “characters” they all are. Her snark and tongue-in-cheek is a lot of fun. Don’t worry, there is plenty of pew-pew. Creepy aliens round out the cast of characters.
The first book had such good flow, I can’t wait to get to book two. It’s so much fun watching “grandma” kicking ass and taking names. Don’t miss this read, it’s got it all!

AUTHOR’S SYNOPSIS:
Captain Wu’s the name. Smuggling’s her game.
To be fair, they only started shooting after she started insulting them.
She was just about to hand off the package—Wu didn’t know what was inside, and she didn’t want to—when three tentacle-faced strangers attacked.
Wu loves a good fight and lives for a good heist. The Captain and her crew make their living taking undercover assignments from questionable clients… and it pays. Or at least, it used to.
But this time the merchandise is a little too hot to handle. So when the squid-shaped xenos show up and destroy the guys who are there to receive it, Wu is barely able to make it back to her ship alive. Soon the Nameless is racing around the galaxy with not only the powerful Commonwealth on its tail, but another dangerous creature bent on revenge.
And then an unexpected visitor arrives, putting Wu and her crew in the position of taking care of some very precious cargo. Is it time for the Captain to give up criming and retire to a sedate life more suitable for a woman of her age?
Not a chance.
