Good, not perfect
The story of a young woman who is tricked into signing up as an asteroid miner, and how she deals with, and overcomes the challenges of surviving in the hostile environment. The story is fairly well written, with an interesting protagonist, some good supporting characters and an engaging plot. It has some issues, thought. My first gripe is with the supporting cast. They all seem like very one dimensional archetypes, the grizzled miner, the curious young girl, the know-it-all child and the mother figure bar owner. These characters are interesting, and I kept hoping they would be fleshed out and given real personality and character, but that never happened. My second gripe is with the audio quality. The first couple episodes had horrible audio quality, and poor narration. The narration and the audio got better and better as the story went on, but the first two episodes almost made me turn it off and delete it from my ipod.

A different take on the space story. Main character was interesting, shows a fully dimensional person not just the ususal one sided personality. Support characters are well developed people not just floating in and out. Narration is good, a slight change to the voice for different characters,...Read full review »

I really enjoyed this take on a spacer mining community. The plot was fast moving, yet deep enough to hold my interest the whole way through. Great job!

Liked the story - took a while to get in to it and nearly gave up after ep 1. Glad I persevered though. The story is not going to give you any surprises but remains interesting. The voice of the narrator was by turns soothing and disinterested which I guess was not quite the desired effect.
