I’m only partway through what’s been posted so far, but I’m completely sucked in by this piece. What the author (who is also an artist—the intro pages are done as a webcomic and then it switches to prose) has done is present this almost like a screenplay, so that instead of a traditional prose narrative, the reader gets a steady stream of sensory impressions, dialogue, sound, visuals. It’s the writing equivalent of a Chinese brush painting, where everything is powerfully conveyed in the minimal strokes. As such, it moves fast and the characters come across very vividly. A definite thumbs up for anyone who likes space opera and/or complex female characters.
