Bairn works at a small way station on the planet Ahbe. Not exactly happy living under his boss’s thumb, the boy’s life takes a turn after a chance meeting with a strange alien.
Between Planet and Sky by Adam Archer is all setup and no story. I loved the alien planet setting and I think it will appeal to a lot of Star Wars fans, but just as the story begins, it's over. A type of mercenary is introduced, followed by a moment of introspection by Bairn, and then it literally says "the end."
I read this on a Kindle, and it said 60%...I continued forward, only to find another incomplete story. I really don't understand why authors publish fragments instead of putting more time and effort into a great story idea.
Bairn is such an interesting character, as well as his boss, it's an absolute shame Archer didn't write a real story.
As always,
AstraDaemon
