Thanks to Pride Book Tours for the free advance copy of this book.
- FRONTIER is a fantastic sci-fi western, set among the humans who stayed behind on Earth, adopting a new religion worshiping the planet while also being ruled over by a network of old-fashioned sheriffs.
- I loved the structure of this book. For most of it, we follow the Stranger from the points of view of other people as she travels, giving us short glimpses of the different cities, beliefs, and factions of this world. When we do get to her perspective, her story is a punch to the heart.
- This book is full of gunslinging, witty retorts, inventive worldbuilding, and queer love. I hope you'll seek it out if those things pique your interest!

If you are a fan the Wayfarers series by Becky Chambers, then this is a book I'd reccomend reading. The story (set on Earth in the far future) follows a lone traveller from space who is looking for her lost love. Curtis creates a tangible world for the reader to fall into that will have you hooked from the first page. Although some sections left me a little confused, I found the story is gripping, fun and well paced. If a queer, adventurous, romance *set in space* is what you're after... then look no further!
