SPOILER SPACE
As has been their pleasant habit, Lee and Miller have created a spoiler
discussion space available for those speedy readers who have read the
eARC, and want to talk about Salvage Right. We do this in kindness to
those people who are waiting for the hardcover, or the audiobook, or the
mass market, and who do not want the story spoiled for them. Here’s the
link to the Salvage Right spoiler space: https://korval.com/2023/03/22/salvage-right-spoiler-space/
