I’d like to nominate Omega Rising (book 1 of Omega Force) by Joshua Dalzelle. It’s a fun and very enjoyable read that opens the door to one of my favorite series of sci-fi novels about a group of unlikely shipmates thrown together from unusual circumstances as they overcome the traffickers who forced them together. It also manages to feel like a hopeful but still dark enough future without being a Star Trek clone.

So I always tell people to watch the first season all the way through before you judge it. It can be hard to get through the first few episodes for various reasons, but if you can make it to the end of the first season without getting hooked. It might not be the show for you.
