I enjoyed reading about Jeth and his crew, and couldn't wait to dive into Avalon right after.Ī spacefaring crew of teenage thieves? An exciting universe populated by monarchies, competing crime lords, a (possibly insidious) pervasive bureaucratic organization? A conflicted thief who wants nothing more than the safety of his sister and to regain ownership of his family’s spaceship? A beautiful, yet ruthless, rival? It was the perfect way to get to know these characters, see them in action and get fully invested. It really excited me to be able to read Proxy before reading Avalon.

I was certainly amazed by the sheer level of talent, ingenuity and intelligence demonstrated! Learning how their missions work, and watching how everyone contributes to its success (even when random shenanigans go down), is really interesting. It's even better that readers get to witness the crew in action, as they're tasked to go on an extremely difficult mission during Proxy. Even though readers don't really get the chance to go in-depth with these individuals, it still gives a great impression of what can be expected. It was really cool to get a chance to meet them, assess their skills and get an idea of what they're like.


Proxy introduces us to Jeth Seagrave and his legendary teenage crew. As it's set a little before the events of Avalon, it works its magic when it comes to building up my curiosity and investment in the series. THOUGHTS AFTER REREAD: It's still an impressive novella! Sets the stage for the series by introducing these characters, and letting them have a little adventure.
