Space Drifters by by Paul Regnier – Book Review

Space Drifters by Paul RegnierSpace Drifters is a light-hearted fun space opera. It focuses on the exploits of a small crew as they seek a powerful object known as the Emerald Enigma.

The story is populated with colourful characters. Captain Starcrost is your underdog starship captain. He’s a little goofy and would be lost without the wisdom of his companions, but he will always demonstrate bravery when it counts. He reminds me a little of Roger Wilco from the Space Quest games.

Blix is very cool. He strikes me a little as an English butler with reptilian scales. His species can dream things into existence, leading to lots of fun and hijinks.

Nelvan – the time travelling young man from the past serves as the anchor to help ease us into the story world. He is a compassionate character.

Jasette brings a welcome female perspective, as well as a great air of mystery. She is a tough-girl bounty hunter … or is she?

Hamilton is the smooth villain you love to hate.

I enjoyed Starcrost’s quest for the emerald enigma. The story comes to a satisfying conclusion, but also leads directly into sequel territory. I’m looking forward to the next one.
