3.0

I picked up Fragments of a Fallen Star after someone described it as “queer pirates.” And queer pirates it gives! Although the fantasy and plot elements are rather clunky and too convenient, the main romance and the diverse display of types of love, from friendship to companionship to desire, let this book shine.
