I’d originally put off reading Bruce Sentar‘s first Escaping Gravity novel due to the initial description being an incoherent mess. That was apparently fixed at some point, and as with the author’s other series this beginning at least is quite entertaining (the main love interest having a Saya no Uta vibe is an interesting choice). Sadly, it already begins to buckle in the second novel with Lily suddenly acting like Returner’s Defiance‘s Simone, a whole host of problems with how the second love interest gets established, and some extremely questionable plot devlopments.
The second of J.L. Williams‘ Quarks and Qi novels picks up shortly after the first one ended and progresses along in much the same way; the main difference is that the sex scene this time around, and probably future ones going forward, is BDSM-themed. Considering where and how it ended however I have strong doubts that any continuation will manage to be in any way believable.
