4.25 Stars This was so much more than I expected! A great sci-fi story with some romance and a little question of what it is that makes a person a person. I found the writing to be solid with well-developed characters and a good plot.

Although Kell being put in another body was odd at first, and it took a while to change my image of him in my mind, it added so much to the story. I loved how Kell and Jorihn’s relationship developed. No insta-love here! The sex scenes were purposeful and added to the story but didn’t dominate the page space. The villain was a little bit of a baddie caricature but there was enough variance in the other characters to balance it.

If you like a little romance with your sci-fi, I suggest checking this out!

I loved Flux Orbit. So it felt too short. But just right, too. In Flux Orbit, humans have started to spread out into the wide universe, after life on Earth became impossible. Luckily people managed space travel and started colonizing other planets.

The story is centred around Apteryx, the space ship/station that brought Jorihn's crew of 300+ out of Earth. They were pointed to a planet where, it turns out, this thing called Flux that can be used as highly efficient fuel, is present. I really liked Kell. The most interesting parts of the story were Kell and Luc interacting, learning, evolving... I'd love to read more stories in this 'verse.
