“I have heard good things about ‘dreams’, although it is strange you hallucinate vividly each night and claim it is healthy.” Moss’d in Space is a wonderful cozy SciFi story that includes some of my favorite things: space travel, great humour and - best of all - a lovable, snarky and hilarious sentient plant named Moss (and a FMC that is equally quick-witted!). The author stated that she was inspired by Murderbot, which I can totally see but I love the direction she took Moss from there! I do see some of Murderbot’s characteristics in Moss but also, it feels a bit like a mix of a golden retriever and a cat - it is ready and waiting for praise, loves you, but judges you nonetheless. :D The book focuses on Torian Razner, our FMC, who has just bought her very first starship. What she didn’t expect when buying said starship in order to leave the space station was acquiring a sentient life support system that has abandonment issues along with it. Now she’s traveling through space with a new buddy and even though all’s not well, at least she’s not alone in her quest. Overall I found all of the characters to be very likeable, the story had a very nice flow and I nearly read it in one sitting because I didn’t want to put it down. The humour was very well done, the story cozy but included several emotional or tense sections as well. I already can’t wait to reunite with these characters in the sequel and I’m so happy that R. Thorne decided to write a cozy story in space! Thank you Netgalley and PanMacMillan/TOR for providing me with this advanced readers copy!
