Review: Co-Ed Dorming in Space
Rating: 4 out of 5

Fleet Academy is a highly unusual story about a space cadet's stay in a training ship.  There are no space fights against pirates or aliens on other ships.  But there is plenty of danger and opportunity for mishaps while Matt Molter, the humble protagonist in this story, conducts various exercises as directed by his superior officers.The author pays special attention to the mechanics of moving about in a space ship, and procedures in donning space suits, going out in space, etc.  Additionally, the author creates a sexually charged atmosphere under the guise of the ship's acceleration affecting libido of the female crew.I agree that the story went overboard on the sex scenes, and I took off a star from my rating for this specific reason.  The sex scenes aside, the story is refreshingly original, and the writer gets kudos for attempting to envision a space cadet's life aboard a training space vessel.
