I got this book with the other two (on the same day) and read them in order. This is the third and last book out of the series (not including Shooting Star) and my favorite one. Instead of several short stories, this consists of 2 really long ones. You get a feel for the story more because they're longer. The first story is What's Your Number and the main character's Ed! She has a big bounty on her head by the Earth's government for being part of a terrorist hacking group, and the crew of the Bebop don't know where she is! This one was fun to read because you learn more about Ed's past and meet an old 'friend' of hers (who happens to have a crush on her!) The real jem of this book is the second story, Fight For Your Right. It starts when a man hires a trucker to take him to Venus. He tells the trucker to go in the middle of nowhere, but it happens to be a secret hyperspace gate! The man forgets something on the ship and thinks that the trucker stole it. Later, Spike hires the same trucker to take him to Mars to turn in a bounty. Spike finds the thing that the man lost in the trucker's ship, and is confronted with him in the secret hyperspace gate. The man fires at him, but he's still on the trucker's ship with no weapons! I loved this story from start to finish. It reminded me of an episode of Bebop, and made me with they thought of it sooner so it could have been! There was plenty of action and suspense to please any Bebop fan. If you're going to get one Cowboy Bebop book, get this one. It's rated 13+ for violence, language, and brief nudity. See you space cowboy...
