Computing lecturer recommended it last week, I picked up the first one as I passed through a bookshop on the way home from work... well you do, don't you?... and am really loving it.No jump? Keep reading. :)Yeah, the characters are very Traveller, especial Amos, who is a the ex-Army Dude you find on every merchant ship for some reason.As you get further in, it gets more Traveller with patrons, semi-legal jobs, and all the fun of Broad Character Development!And shotguns in space!
