"Vesta Central is a quick, fun romp through space that anyone who grew up glued to the TV watching Star Trek and Battlestar Galactica (yours truly) will appreciate. The story is quick, but I'm okay with that, because the world Piotr created is vast and structurally sound enough that he will be able to return to it over and over. I see this short story as the first serial in a series. I look forward to the next installment."
