I did enjoy the character of Bobby and enjoyed learning more about her and more about life on Mars. Again, I'm glad I read this before [b:Nemesis Games 22886612 Nemesis Games (The Expanse #5) James S.A. Corey https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1407524221s/22886612.jpg 42456264].
It was a good story. Reminded me of how much I like the Bobbie Draper character. I hope she turns up again in a future Expanse novel.
