A well written space opera following the crew of the Wayfair, a tunneling ship that bores new stable wormholes used for transportation. They take a new job that requires them to travel for nearly a year to a new endpoint for a tunnel. What is fabulous about this book is the interspecies relationships that are described and developed throughout, including with sentient AI. I love that even in a world where different species are commonplace, there are still surprises for the characters as they individually interact in new environments, finding out about themselves and others. Super fun.
