Publisher's Summary

A dead ship returns to the Deep Dark with a live crew.

Captain Ishmael Wang finally gets the Chernyakova out of the yard and embarks on a voyage into the Toe-Holds where the Confederated Planets Joint Committee on Trade has no authority. Where the law is whatever you say it is as long as you can enforce it.

Where he learns that some will do anything to hide their secrets and everybody has a secret.

Great Second Book

If you could sum up To Fire Called in three words, what would they be?

Excellent continuation of the story , lots of secrets revealed . It will be a nail biting wait for the next instalment .

What about Jeffrey Kafer’s performance did you like?

Mr Kafer's voice is very professional but i much preferred Nathan Lowell's reading of the original 5 stories from Podiobooks .

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I prefer to make my listenings last as long as I can with these shorter stories.

Next stop Diurnia..e

Great to see Ishmael wrestle with his demons & win. Some of the phrasing & pronunciation in the delivery were a bit odd, but the story made up for it.

Great continuation

Another one for the series. Same style as the previous books, if you liked those you will like this. The final 2 chapters were a bit rapid though, and whisked through events at breakneck pace compared to the rest of the novel. A longer conclusion and further explanation would have been preferred. Hopefully it is explained in the next novel?

Nothing happens but everyone is best friends

It’s a enjoyable enough story where there isn’t any conflict and everyone gets along like the best of friends. And very little of any consequence actually happens. It’s hours of dialogue interspersed with occasional space scenery. As an example, a ridiculous amount of time was spent focused on the Captain shopping for clothes - which never paid off in the story in any way other than the obligatory ‘wow, you look nice’ comments from ship mates.
It’s wholesome and friendly. Zero drama or intrigue or excitement.
