In this inventive and heartfelt take on a dystopian space opera, humanity’s last hope comes complete with a space station, an attitude, and …whiskers?
Civilization has fallen. The solar system is blanketed with the automated weapons of ancient wars, engineered plagues, hazardous waste, rogue AI, monsters from outside our dimension, artificial disasters, and nuclear climate change. Every moment of life on Earth is a brutal fight for survival. The people of Sol carry on, but hope is at a premium. They need something more. Someone with a plan, a savior, a hero.
What they get is Lily. Owner of the last functional battle station for the last four hundred years by right of being the last living soul on it, Lily ad-Alice has spent all that time struggling to save lives, fend off loneliness, and operate human-made weapons controls with paws and meows. Four centuries of establishing protocols, figuring out how to utilize an irresponsibly large arsenal of orbital weaponry, and scraping by with what life support still functions.
Lily doesn’t have a plan. She can’t even tell how haunted her home is. Every day is an endless stream of alarms and crises—it’s a lot for a lone desperate housecat to handle herself. But being the proprietor of the last piece of working orbital infrastructure in existence is a responsibility and duty she’s accepted anyway.
Now things are changing again. Something big is looming, and everything Lily has scrambled for hundreds of years to achieve is at risk. But if she’s quick, maybe she can do some good. If she’s cunning, maybe she can adapt. If she’s smart, maybe she can build something that lasts this time. And if she’s very, very lucky, maybe she won’t have to do it alone.
The hit science-fiction tale—with more than 900,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Back when Tom Clancy was alive and writing books, most of his books followed the same route: a slow burn for 3/4th, then the last 1/4 was explosive, awesome, fantastic, and made up for the slow roll prior 75%. This book is like that for non-SciFi people like me.
SOME SPOILERS BELOW
Pros:
Lilly was a fun character and she had a fantastic sense of humor
It was engaging. I could get into the action and I could (almost) follow all of it
Super technical stuff. I read The Martian and the technical jargon was plenty but not insanely complex to follow. The author has played Starcraft, Halo, and a great deal of other awesome fun space games.
Relatable. A mix of Groundhog Day, Fifth Element, Edge of Tomorrow, 2001, Multiplicity, and a host of other SciFi movies
Cons:
Sometimes Lilly was TOO smarmy. Lilly's sarcasm and cute expressions are a lot to ask of a reader over the span of 19 hours. This is nitpicky point, so it is a minor con.
I got a little lost in the flashbacks and it took me way too long to piece it all together. I blame my lack of SciFi experience, so this is also a minor con
Length. nineteen hours is a great amount of time to demand of a non SciFi reader, but DANGIT! I finished it and the last 40 minutes made the average Tom Clancy fantastic climax look like Ferris Bueller's history class.
If I had to do it all over again, would I spend 6 weeks listening to this as I drove back and forth to school?
Yes. I challenged myself with a genre I am not usually a fan of. I've read Ender's Game, Starship Troopers, and that's about it. I feel proud to have finished this behemoth, and right meow I am very happy I read it.
Tom Clancy in Space. SciFi fans will love it

As for the book itself, it is cute, whimsical, humorous, touching, and unexpectedly adventurous. There were several points that I definitely did not expect and I think the author delivered something far greater than the somewhat silly premise might imply. Well worth a read or a listen.
