Why read it?
2 authors picked Junkyard Cats as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
When I first found the Junkyard books, Junkyard Cat, Junkyard Bargain, I was waiting for a Junkyard Roadhouse. These books were where I found Faith Hunter and she is on of my all-time favourite authors. I listen to her Jane Yellowrock full series every year. If I need a short listen I go for Junkyard Cats and then I find myself listening to the other two as I love the characters so much. I adore the slow burn romance and the quirky characters. The heroine is one tough lady. :)
This is a good book, not great, but good. But I do recommend it to anyone who is interested in writing sci-fi. I love old-school sci-fi with the exception that it doesn’t always portray women in the best ways. Sci-fi has done better than most genres in making room for strong female characters, but not strong women writers. So when a talented writer like Faith Hunter writes a book with a female character who kicks ass and holds her own amongst the male heroes and villains, we should take note. It’s one thing to have a strong female lead written…
From Matthew's list on old-school sci-fi from 21st century authors.
