#SciFi #MovieReview : Space Sweepers
A fun adventure set in space, with lots of space action, Space Sweepers is a fun watch.
It was a little long and the backstories were a bit clumsily done, but I felt like I was in space through the whole film. And, the backstories add a lot to the plot and the story on an emotional level. It made it easier to connect with the characters.
On first impression, the main characters are not people you want to know, but their job isn’t pleasant. They’re outlaws and have few ethics. As we learn more about them, they become more likable, and I rooted for their victory.
The movie starts with a trip up into orbit on a space elevator. We stay in space for the rest of the movie. Sweepers clean up space debris in orbit and earn very little for their efforts. In fact, they often end up further in debt.
The plot centers around them stumbling across a very valuable piece of space debris. It can earn them a fortune and change their lives. The sticking point… the debris is alive.
There’s lots of action, fast flying ships, battle explosions, bad guys, adversaries, and adventure. The world-building is very well done, and I loved the way it ended.
Space Sweepers is definitely worth a watch. And, you don’t need beer!
This movie gets the coveted ‘beer is optional’ rating. It’s currently on Netflix.

In the far future, humanity settles the stars, bioengineering its descendants to survive in a harsh universe. This set contains the first 3 novels in the science fiction series, The Backworlds. A space opera adventure.
The Backworlds
After the war with the Foreworlders, Backworlders scatter across the remaining planets. Competition is fierce, and pickings are scant. Scant enough that Craze’s father decides to improve his fortunes by destroying his son. He tells his only boy their moon isn’t big enough for them both and gives Craze a ticket for the next transport leaving the space dock.
Stopover at the Backworlds’ Edge
Revenge is on Craze’s mind. He chews on it every day along with the relentless dust on Pardeep Station. He dreams of grander wealth, enough to make his father choke. That’s the dream consuming him when the interstellar portal opens, spitting out a ship that should no longer exist. A battleship spoiling for a fight. Yet the war with the Foreworlds ended two generations ago.
Boomtown Craze
Craze is only days away from the grand opening of his shiny new tavern. The starway opens, bringing in a loony Backworlder intent on mucking up his carefully laid plans. Gaunt and trembling, she claims her spaceship is possessed. She also has a connection to the underworld, threatens to end Craze’s prosperity before it begins.

What are you willing to lose in order to win?
Only Craze seems to understand the galaxy is about to be lost.
He can no longer keep the evil Quassers contained, and winning the war gets harder. The Quassers join forces with another enemy and become more threatening, more destructive, and more murderous.
Planet after planet falls, and the only hope Craze has is a handful of tiny discoveries that might add up to a viable strategy. But he needs the other planets in the galaxy working with him. So far, everybody is still out for themselves, leaving him to make the gut-wrenching decisions—the deaths of innocents in exchange for everyone’s survival.
Will his desperate efforts yield victory, or does humanity take its last breaths?
This is the eighth book in the science fiction series, The Backworlds. A space opera adventure.
