I prefer an SF story to have good science in it -- but I'm quite willing to overlook a bit of dodgy or handwavy science, if the story is engrossing and the characters seem real to me.
This is a novel positing a pretty-much-unbelievable phenomenon of interstellar "jetstreams" which permit FTL travel among distant star systems. But the story and characters are such rollicking great fun that I enjoyed it massively and didn't mind the handwavery. I gave it 4+ stars and will happily pick up any sequels.
