Jeff Cochrane’s Reviews > The 5th Gender > Status Update

A charming story. Gail Carriger has written her first science fiction book and it’s a good one. On one level it’s about a detective, an adorable lavender alien, lots of sex, and a murder. The story is character driven and is more about developing a relationship, overcoming doubts and making things work. The m/m sex isn’t just thrown in, but serves the purpose of adding to the building relationship. Recommended.
