Captain's Share, by Nathan Lowell. We catch up with Ish after a 10-year time skip - he finally gets to become a captain, but he's assigned the worst ship in the merchant fleet. There's nothing wrong with the ship itself, but its crew is definitely problematic. We know he has fabulous people skills, though, and we've seen him learn a lot in the past 20 years. It takes a lot of work to overcome their problems - I especially enjoyed the part of the story where he takes a big gamble and then reconsiders. I appreciated that the author gave him a voice that matched his new stage of life, but I have to say that Ish was very lucky that none of the crew members had grievances against each other, which made his task of building a solid team a whole lot easier than it might have been.

And very strange, too. Well, I'm glad I did the experiment.
