Without giving too much away, I did appreciate the science (and pseudo-science) that was used to create an interesting story. Martin certainly seemed to have an adequate grasp of sci-fi to give this story a satisfying twist that drove the plot into the denouement. Depending on your tolerance of these elements, I can say that they’re at least naturally integrated with this novella. Martin elements were present: mainly, sex and violence. Granted, even though Nightflyers is science fiction, all of the notable George R.R.

Paired together to discuss the show, Eoin Macken ( The Night Shift) and Jodie Turner-Smith ( The Last Ship) talked about the appeal of being a part of Nightflyers.
