The Firing Order (Closed Sky #1)

A ship runs a certified route and nearly tears itself apart, and every instrument says it did nothing wrong. Lieutenant Sarah Bishop can prove the track was somewhere the certificate said it wasn't. She can't explain why. So she gets sent out with an expedition to measure the place where the maps stop agreeing with each other.

I wanted the tension to live in the numbers: people deciding when a measurement is good enough to bet a ship on.

  • Did the measurement side read as tension or as homework? Be honest.
  • Sarah can prove it before she can explain it. Did that make you trust her more, or less?
  • New series, new way in. Did it stand on its own for you?

Spoilers for this book are fine below. It's the book's own thread. Anything from a later book or another series, wrap it in [spoiler] tags so nobody gets ambushed.
