![]() ![]() Then I also found out that this (and another one which I also read today and will be reviewing shortly) was penned by a German author so of course I had to read the source material. I had no idea the episode was based on a short story but apparently most of them actually are, which is very cool. We thus get to fall in love with the ship as much as her pilot did and I feel no shame when admitting that I shed a tear at the end of the episode and again when finishing this short story. She'll find out that at least one of those assumptions is wrong. But then she gets a new pilot, who neither believes in ships having characters nor in any sort of luck. Lucky Number Thirteen is so named for her serial number and after a few fateful incidents, she's almost feared for the bad luck she supposedly attracts. One of my favourite episodes of Love, Death & Robots was this one about a ship that is said to be the unluckiest but actually proves to be great in the right hands. ![]()
