It would have been very easy for Lucas Webber to turn this series into LitRPG. which sort of matches the look of the suits from Gantz, with what is basically techno-magic, and upgrades. Liz, being female friends with all 3 of the girls involved with the group, I think her continuing support for the growing "unconventional" relationship will be a way to realistically come together in a "harem".Īgain, it is a slow burn on the harem front, but with lots of character development and one very steamy scene that readers will enjoy.īut the other elements that make book 1 stand out are there. I think she serves as a woman outside the core group that gives a sort of "okay" to the rest of the characters that the Captain has to deal with. She performed that job in book 1, and continues that here. But she acts more like "one of the guys" or a "wingman" to the protagonist. So there are emotional backstories, and scenes of character development that might make some people want to rush through and get to the action. I feel like the author is trying to bring these 3 in as realistic a way as possible. She is the nurse of the group.Īnd finally, we have Amber, the girl on the cover. But has perhaps had a wild past, or has some skeletons in her past, so she has been keeping men romantically at a distance. She is the girl with the overactive sex drive. Natsuki assesses Sophie as a 2 on the Kinsey scale. But she didn't really have time for men, she was all work and almost no play. literally experimented! She determined that she was a 1 on the Kinsey scale (0 being heterosexual and 6 being lesbian). In a very funny passage, she explains to the captain that she experimented in college.
Doesn't really believe in soul mates and spiritual stuff. We have Natsuki - a Japanese scientist and all-around big brain beauty. And while in book 1, they were fleshed out with the quick broad strokes you would expect, in book 2 he adds more detail. He continues to flesh out the 3 girls he introduced us to in book 1.
An author has only has so much page time, so you tend to get a group of blank slate girls rather than 2 or 3 very well fleshed out girls.īut Lucas Webber has decided to take a slower path, and I like it. I find with some books the personalities of the girls are hard to discern. You get from A to B, C, and D character-wise very quickly, and that is fine as far as things go, but it is nice sometimes to take things slower. Maybe readers are impatient these days, I am not sure. These days it seems like a lot of harem series are quick on the draw.
