Why read it?
2 authors picked A Big Ship at the Edge of the Universe as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The great thing about this one is how closely related the magic and technology are—the magic is really used to manipulate technology.

Sci-fi is full of plucky bands of found family misfits going up against impossible odds, but the Salvagers series is one of its finest examples. Alex White blends sci-fi tech with a magic system that really works, and leads to some truly memorable action sequences. The final act of this book has stuck with me as one of those big fights where it seems like escape is impossible, but the danger is palpable and you honestly think the entire cast is going to be wiped out. And of course, once you finish Big Ship, continue on to the next…
From Nathan's list on scifi fantasy with action sequences.
