I read this when serialised in Analog (or Asimov's, but I think it was Analog). Highly recommended.
It was on Analog. Jan/Feb - May/Jun 2018.
I don't read magazines, and surprised to learn that novels are still being serialized

Ah - I see it's also on offer at £1.99 at Amazon UK. Another one added to my TBR - I wonder how much it's changed from the serialisation?
The author answered this question on Goodreads.

Just read this and liked it a lot.

Sounds good! I'll check it out.

Why oh why make everything a series? (That's a rhetorical question. I understand the financial incentives.)

I hear you. My enthusiasm drops to near zero when I find a book is part of a series. If the books are only loosely linked I'm OK with that as long as the ongoing storyline is concluded in that book.

What??? You don't love cliff-hangers? Don't they make you want to purchase the next book until the series finally ends?

This forum also self-selects first books in series(es?), because deals on first books make it easier to "upsell" the sequels at full price.

I finish very few series, even if I enjoy them. Part of the problem is that when I finish a book, I'm in the mood for something else. Then when it's time for the second book, I feel I can't remember the details from the first book.

When I read a series I alternate between a series book and something else. That adds variety without losing track.

I'm a total sucker for series. I'll do a complete reread after reading the latest release, just because I enjoy 'hanging' out with characters that have become like old friends.

No, no, that's just BEFORE the newest release is due to come out!
