Dwarves in Space

Dwarves in Space

2015

I wanted so much to like this book. The premise sounds right up my alley, though, to be fair, the promise “Tolkien merged with Hitchhiker's and Firefly [...]” is a bit of a tall order to begin with.

I am truly sorry to say that I DNFed (at least for now) somewhere in chapter 2. :(

While there were some funny moments, there wasn't enough of a storyline or character development (so far) to draw me in. (Since another reviewer points out that the story picks up later, I want to give this book another try - just not right now.)

From a technical standpoint, the story could have used a bit more editorial TLC: the POV was at times unclear and seemed to hop around between characters in the same paragraph, plus there were some typos and grammar mistakes most of which I'm sure another round of proofreading would have caught.
