Why read it?
1 author picked The Price of the Stars as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is my favorite type of space opera: bigger-than-life characters, tons of action, with great sense of wonder and a world full of surprises. The women characters are excellent, as well.
There is a touch of fantasy in this series that I found sparked a hint of the numinous.
From Sherwood's list on epic sci-fi series that let you live in another world.
