Main Bi Character |
|
Category: Space opera
Summary: The main character, Jason, is a tough, powerful woman, the CEO of one of the biggest corporations in the galaxy. She’s also been known to steal gemstones for fun. That’s why she can’t resist a dangerous challenge made by one of her top business competitors from the planet New Crete. Jason appears to be bi. I suspect the author might be bi or gay because of a couple of people in her acknowledgments. Mostly I liked the book, but it has a lot of detailed description and I tend to prefer more action, less description.

Summary: Andrej Koscuisko is a doctor whose social position has forced him into the job of Ship's Surgeon, which means part of his job is torturing political prisoners.
