I love sci-fi, consume it over all media from novels, to tv, to movies, to anime, to my Gunpla and fighting robot plastic models. The Expanse is my all-time favourite sci-fi book series and i'm already onboard for James S. A. Corey's Captive War series. However, as a gay dude, I am literally dying for stories of gay male heroes who have to go through challenging adventures and battles that have nothing to do with their sexuality.
I don't really enjoy LGBT themes stories that resolve around the experience of being gay. I just want a hero who is gay like James Holden being straight never was the point of The Expanse and yet allowed him to have fulfilled relationships in the pages without taking anything from the overarching plot.
That's the kind of adventure I want to hop on with a badass gay male space hero or mecha pilot in a book, since I'll probably be long dead before it ever happens on a screen. And I mean a MC, I don't want anymore secondary or tertiary blink and you'll miss sidekicks.
Anyone has any rec for me please?
