Review: My Own Kind of Freedom
You've probably seen mentions that Steven Brust posted his Firefly fanfic novel. It's good. It's in the continuity shortly before the movie. This time the job goes right . . . but Mal manages to find some trouble anyway. He did a superb job of getting the characters right, especially River (which impresses me--she's hard to write). His Guest Star is an interesting person and plays a key role without overshadowing the BDHs. Go read it, y'all.
I haven't been that familiar with Brust before this. I'd enjoyed Cowboy Feng's Space Bar and Grille but not enough to go seek out more of his work. I think I'm going to pick up Freedom and Necessity and give it another shot.
