“The Salvage Crew” by Yudhanjaya Wijeratne

Hi all,
Book of the Month
*The Salvage Crew* – Yudhanjaya Wijeratne (2020)

With one foot in classic sci fi and one foot in contemporary society, *The Salvage Crew* is supposed to be a tip of the hat to the space opera genre while pushing boundaries. Wijeratne has been on my radar since being nominated for the 2018 Nebula Award for Best Novellette. People note that he finds a balance in his writing between a fairly casual tone while still pushing the narrative and being able to pack in hard sci-fi when necessary. Let’s see what this breakout contemporary author has in store for us! You can find an in-depth review (with spoilers) via Mithila below:

As you’ll see in the comments below, *The Salvage Crew* is currently only available in hardcover or via Kindle or Audible. Quick plug for the audiobook as it is narrated by *Firefly* and *Castle* star Nathan Fillion!

We will be meeting on the 4th Sunday in June as Father’s Day is the 3rd Sunday.

Cheers,
Jon
