Looking for a Christmas present for the Space Opera nerd in your life? The one who insists on you watching The Expanse and all of Star Trek with them although you really, truly don't care about SciFi?

How about giving them Herald Petrel for Christmas? It is 457 pages and so they will be occupied for a while.

It has a to be solved, quirky characters and is about , , , , and in a hopeless situation.

Warning: It doesn't have a white guy as a captain who fixes everything. And there is A LOT that needs fixing.

You can get it in all your fav book stores: https://books2read.com/HeraldPetrel

Back of the book with the blurb reading: If you ask Harold Galahad, he isn’t fit to lead the crew of the half-destroyed cargo spaceship Herald Petrel back home. But nobody asks Harry. An explosion leaves the ship helplessly floating in space and Harry reliving his own personal nightmare. He doesn’t want to be a captain anymore, and nobody trusts him as captain—least of all himself. The crew behaves strangely, his first officer is less than helpful, and the more he finds out, the more Harry has to challenge his own beliefs. While forced to relive the darkest part of his past, Captain Harold Galahad needs to figure out what happened and find a way back home.

The listing is debatable because implies that the sexualities will play a role. They don't, really, since love is love. If anything, it is irrelevant to the story. It is just that the only vaguely straight character is and his best friend is a proud and says so. Characters and human(oid) relationships play a role, not sexualities, but there is no category for that. 🤷:QueerCat_Pride:

We have two cats: and (yes, from )

There are two cats in frame, near a very small cat tower. On top of the tower, Ophelia is laying down. Below, in a meercat-like pose, is Maya. She is trying to get a better view of the other cat. They didn't know each other very well at this time.
A gray cat, Maya, is laying on the couch. She is curled up such that her belly and paws are all exposed, though her tail is tucked near her feet. She looks peacefully asleep
A gray/gray-orange cat is laying on a white blanket. Her name is Ophelia, and she has one eye half open, which is a brilliant green-orange. She is very relaxed. You get the faint impression of a person's legs underneath the blanket
