Do you know how long it has been since I read a book written in first person? Long time. The Icarus Hunt by Timothy Zahn was written from that perspective, and it was odd making the transition. Perhaps the good news was that Jordan McKel, the main character, had a Sherlock Holmes in the 21st century thing going on. Throw in an alien Watson, a space freighter, a mystery, and you've got a good book. Well, at least in my opinion you do.
