Action-packed mystery on a cruise liner in space that will keep you guessing until the very end.

When Sylvia hacks her way into a job on board a commercial spaceship, she doesn’t expect to find a dead body in the laundry.

The pace and characters are excellent. The mystery is well crafted. The only thing that dimmed my enthusiasm (slightly) was the dodgy science and a few spots where I didn’t understand what happened. ( )

This book is a cruise ship cozy mystery with the cruise ship being in space. The main character Sylvia is smart brave and funny, Neptune is her perfect foil and I’ll be happy if he is in the second book of the series.
Some things I guessed at but others were a complete surprise.

I’d guessed that Neptune was actually a good guy, and that Pika the Stowaway was somehow under his protection. I’d thought at some point that the murderer was Yeoman D’Nar, but I was wrong about that and was surprised when Captain Swift was revealed as the killer, saboteur and would be slaver.



Fun book, when I went looking for my next cozy mystery read I’d never have guessed that it’d be a SF book.

Murder on Moon Trek 1 was another great read from Vallere as well as an amazing start to a new series. Sylvia Stryker's dream is to leave her small planet behind and take part in a moon trek so she hacks into and falsifies her records so that she can take part in this maiden voyage. Things definitely don't go as planned when she finds a dead body, attracts the attention of the head of security, and become embroiled in the middle of a murder mystery.

I have to admit that I am not the biggest science fiction fan but I love reading cozy mysteries so I was excited to give this series a try. I am so glad that I did. I loved how Vallere made the main focus of the story on the characters especially Sylvia who was very well developed throughout the book. The book was about Sylvia's journey in achieving her dream, coming to terms with her past, and looking toward the future. I also loved the secondary characters as well especially Pika. I loved how Vallere combined science fiction, mystery, drama, and humor making this book very enjoyable and hard to put down. I look forward to reading the next book in this series, and I would most definitely recommend this book to readers who want a fun, enjoyable read.

Received a copy of Murder on Moon Trek 1 from the author in exchange for an honest review. ( )
