Fantastic and exciting! I fell instantly in love with the characters! Can't wait for the next book!

I wasn't entirely sure what to expect from this book. Interstellar furries, perhaps? A sort of Guardians of the Galaxy type thing? But, no. It was quite a surprise, and a pleasant one, too. A naive girl with powers she doesn't understand, collecting genetically engineered beast-folk and trying to uncover the secrets of their past. Not nearly as light-hearted and pretty as you might think, either - violence, psychological distress, and oppressive politics. As the characters themselves conclude at some point, there don't really seem to be any good guys in this tale.
But I really do want to read more.
