UGHHHHH. I'm SO behind on reviews. Damn you, real job. Ergo, I'm gonna let Amazon do the work today:
Erm. Well.
Long story short: I downloaded this one for my Kindle. It was either free or only a dollar or two, so it was worth it. Not the best book I ever read, but it kept me entertained while I was on my treadmill. The Big Bad in Crescent was a bit confusing, though, since I was never entirely sure what the ef it was, but it didn't really matter.
In a nutshell: Entertaining enough. And space! The final frontier, and all that.
Bibliolatry Scale: 3 out of 6 stars
FTCBS: personal Kindle copy
*Ugh, I suck so bad, I couldn't even come up with a better title. My brain = barf.
Darkness has inspired fear since mankind first watched the sun go down. Bad things hide in the dark, feral beasts with mouths full of razors waiting for a taste of flesh. But now, the darkness is stirring with a life of its own. Crescent Station is the last bastion of civilization, floating in the cold, outer systems where colonized space gives way to the sparser settlements of the Frontier. Like the boom towns of distant Earth's Old American West, Crescent Station is a gateway to power, wealth, and opportunity for anyone who isn't afraid to get his or her hands dirty. But deep within the station's bowels, in Crescent's darkest and most secret places, an ancient evil is awakening and hungry, and it threatens the very fabric of space and time. Will the residents of Crescent Station find a way to stop it before the terror drives them insane? Or is it already too late?
Erm. Well.

Since I write about storms that terrified people with their darkness, the idea of not being able to see out of or into something resonates with me, but...
For the treadmill, Trollope is best.
Let's all quit our jobs and read books instead. :))
