** Red himself is a gruff, rough-natured man who prefers to fly alone aboard his massive space freighter. He's also kind hearted, quickly apologizes for causing harm, and is thoroughly disinterested in committing violence for profit. Oh, and the reason he owns such a giant ship? ''It allows him to ferry entire vessels back to port,'' when he's rescuing people stranded in space.

As far as she's concerned, only a psychopath would ever wield such a thing.

In contrast to the previous book, ''Literature/BemsAndBugs'' spends almost as much time showing the viewpoints of other people as they cross paths with the emotionally fragile, devastatingly lonely, but undeniably formidable mercenary. But of course many of those people are pirates. Not to mention that the Fey, the ancient enemy of humanity, is still out there looking to undermine Lisa by any means possible, no matter how petty or underhanded.

* CharacterDevelopment: When Lisa finally decides to have consensual sexual relations with a male for the first time in her life, it's a major victory over her past trauma. She's decided she's had enough of allowing the memory of the worst of her abusers to deprive her of good things.
