Book Review: Blood Voyager
By Elizabeth Suggs
Blood Voyager by Katie Collupy is a sci-fi/crime mystery set in space on the Voyager ship.
One of my favorite things about this story was the interpersonal drama. Each character had their own share of problems, their own personalities. They were three-dimensional in an intricately crafted world, where it was commonplace to be born on Mars.
The crime mystery happens because of a murder. Seasoned detective, Henry Finch, was brought on the ship to find a murderer.
There’s intrigue, questions, and plenty of clues! I had a lot of fun with this story. The only critique I had was the character shifts. While I love first-person stories, I was thrown off for a few chapters. This was mostly a fault of mine since the name of whose perspective we’re reading is the subheading of each chapter, but it still threw me off because I don’t normally read first-person-perspective-changing stories.
Here’s my favorite quote:
A man was taking over my entire family, and my mother hadn’t even bothered to mention it.
Good ending, good pacing. I can’t wait for the next book!
