The beginning of this book goes into excruciating detail about planetside vehicle racing. Flipping back through the pages, I can see now that it didn't actually go on nearly as long as I remember it having done -- so that tells you something about how tedious I found the first part of it.

Once it got out into space, it did become a somewhat more enjoyable story of treasure hunters on a spaceship. This novel has been compared to Firefly based on its "motley crew on a piece of crap ship seeking their fortune" theme; I would say that it's not quite up to that level. I didn't feel any compulsion to seek out and read the sequel, for whatever that's worth.
