“What’s wrong?” The bigger geroo asked, twisting Kanti’s helmet free. “Can’t breathe?” The commissioner accidentally let his last cleaning crew starve to death. So now, Kanti and 49 of his teammates will have to spend the rest of their lives in a one-room barracks, with only a single airlock protecting them from the planet’s poisonous atmosphere. Surrounded by towering monsters, on a world where the very air is lethal, mysterious burrowing strangers are pushing the crew into a panic. Will Kanti be able to keep them from tearing each other apart? Or are they doomed to suffer a fate similar to the commissioner’s previous cleaning crew?

I think i’ll wait a bit before the next story because I really don’t want to finish this thing i’ve put off for years.
Pain, suffering, and joy go together.

But there is still enough to read and enjoy. It is a good survival story how 50 people are wrongfully punished for a character whose only crime was just being born. The stress of these geroo slavery under the Krakun is present now on how "dehumanizing" their slave masters can be. From deadly punishment to forced starvation. These people live like rat bound to clean the apartment for an uncaring lizard.
If that wasn't enough, this is a good story on how societies can fall apart as soon as the "noble and kind leader" gets killed and a tyrant takes is place and the one person who sees the warning signs is slowly placing a target on himself.

Well... until they don't anymore.
Piers is still the best, by the way. He delivers all the voices with conviction, attitude and distinct personalities.
I think it would have flowed a bit better if it was broken into parts on top of the chapters, since they tend to flow into one another without regard for the passage of time. This story is episodic, and the primary episodes are, firstly, their departure and arrival on Krakuntec, secondly, the life of Dekka, and thirdly, Saquel building his security force. (also there's the fourth one but that's just the last two chapters and leads into book 3) But this is a minor nitpick about the structuring of the story that only occurred to me when I listened to it all the way through. Regardless of this, you NEED to read this book if you want to really grasp the depths of where this story plunges in book 3... which should be out *checks fictional watch* any day now~
This is the middle... the middle of our story

planned betrayals

Like "Skeleton Crew" and the "White Flower II" series by Rick Griffin (also part of the same continuity), Piers Ryman delivers an excellent narrative performance, giving each character their own voice. Gre7g's writing style is engaging, and the pacing adjusting as needed. Exposition is neither vague nor drawn-out; it is written to provide you with the necessary information at a given time.
My only two concerns. 1) I was hoping Sarsuk would play a bigger role, with his close proximity to the cast. However, it is a minor issue being as the story is more about the geroo and less of the krakun.
2) A couple of chapter titles near the end of the story felt more like placeholders, those being of names of certain characters. I say this being as these two characters are introduced early in the book and have significant focus on them in multiple chapters. So I was a little confused why THESE two chapters used their names. To be fair, it never deterred my interest in the story, and it feels to be less of a concern compared to the previous book.
Apart from the two minor criticisms, I enjoyed the story throughout and never once felt disinterested. Happy to five-star this and look forward to "Fair Trade." ;)
Kanti's Story Takes a New Direction

I would recommend this to anyone who enjoyed Skeleton Crew, and I'm definitely going to be on the ball with going through Fair Trade when the audio book comes out.
Even More Engaging than the First Book

I highly suggest this follow up if you have read book 1 of the Kanti Cycle.
Piers Ryman once again brings the characters to life with his performance. I am very much looking forward to anything the author writes that is narrated by Piers Ryman.
An interesting turn of events

Once again the idea of small unsuspecting characters being explored in a big story is present. How many books have you read about an alien cleaning crew? Was a first for me but I am glad I did.
Small world is a frontier story in a sense. The characters are taken to a strange new environment where they have to learn to survive its harsh environment all while trying to build a new society. Just like the first book you will fall in love with the characters, laugh with them, cry with them, and fear for them during the hard parts.
Once again Piers Ryman does a stellar job with the narration. He reads the characters with conviction and brings each and every one of them to life.
