I dunno ... Acorna is kinda cute ... like young adult SF, but with no cloying preachy parts, so that an old jade like myself could read it comfortably.
I like the Ship/City series, especially Helga's stories.
If you don't like graphic sex, let me warn you off of Sharon Green's early series, the Jalav, Terrilan, and Lady Blade, Lord Fighter series. They're absolutely filthy.
Vile.
Disgusting.
Trust me.
Sharon Green... noted! :-)
It was good of you to screen them *all* like that... just to be sure that young mind weren't corrupted by such things.
Mighty brave of you.
