All Systems Red (The Murderbot Diaries) by Martha Wells. Novella length book, surprisingly engaging. Hits all the marks. Looking forward to sequels. Wells has a respectable catalogue of fantasy, and I thought about diving into that, but her main series is about shapeshifting winged people, and that's totally not my thing. Glad she's crossed over...

Fata Morgana by Boyett and Mitchroney. Starts off in WWII with the crew of a B-17 bomber, European theater. Portal story. I would say there are some minor plotting issues, but this isn't one you're going to want to miss. As an aside, Steven Boyett wrote The Architect of Sleep back in the 80s, a great portal fantasy that ended on a cliffhanger, with no sequel, ever. Maddening. I feel like I'm still nursing a wound from that, but maybe this new book helped.

Midshipman's Hope by David Feintuch

Really flawed main character, but still, you want him to succeed. :) Excellent naval sf. The religious element is creative.

All Systems Red by Martha Wells

Not exactly military sf--the main character is more security personnel than military personnel--but it reads like good military sf. Nonstop action and the protagonist's running commentary is golden.

Since CGI has advanced so much, if Data ever appeared again, I'd rather see Spiner doing voice/motion-capture, with Data himself as simply CGI.

I agree that Data as a ship AI doesn't really fit him.

I also second the thought that if you want to explore the idea of Ship AIs, you can turn to science fiction novels.

Ann Leckie's Ancillary series follows the ship Justice of Toren. First book is Ancillary Justice.

Martha Wells has her Murderbot Diaries, and in a few of the stories, a ship-based AI shows up. The first book of that series is All Systems Red.

If you want to go retro, Anne McCaffrey has her Ship Who Sang series, although those aren't true AI but human brains encased in "shells" that can be installed into spaceships or cities to help run them. First book is, predictably, The Ship Who Sang, but take note it was first published decades ago in the 70s or 80s, so some of the ideas are outdated by now.

I liked sea of rust, which amazon recommended after All Systems Red. It was a short read but it was the best thing I've read in quite a while.

Seriously, I could see your concept working as a movie script, and I think you could write with that in mind, especially as you develop your character's personalities.

You might shoot for novella length rather than short story or novel, so maybe 40,000-50,000 words. Bang out the first one and you're already into your first sequel by the end of the year.

Look at the recent success of Martha Wells' Murderbot series. Novellas. Sequels. They are competently written, lighthearted short novels, and people are downloading them.
