The first book in a thrilling new sci-fi action adventure, set on Donovan, a treacherous alien planet where corporate threats and dangerous creatures imperil the lives of the planet's inhabitants. A ghost ship, the Freelander, appears in orbit. Missing for two years, she arrives with a crew dead of old age, and reeks of a bizarre death-cult ritual that deters any ship from attempting a return journey. But maybe it's worth the risk, for a brutal killer is stalking all of them as Donovan plays its own complex and deadly game.

I have mixed feelings about this book. I didn't LOVE it, but I kind of loved it.
Donovan is a dangerous and truly alien world. The universe the characters occupy is interesting and detailed. And I really love some of the characters.
Parts of the novel seem a bit dry and cliche, but I still couldn't get enough of it. So, yeah. Five stars.
