Review: It was cute, fun, and different - as long as you are ok with extremely explicit erotic gay male sex.

This is a short novel - maybe a third of the length of a regular novel.  I believe sequels are coming.  The prequel is "Seedy Business" a free download from Goodreads and the author's website.  It's not necessary to read both together, but it did provide a little back story.  I gave 4 stars to "Seedy Business."Runt is a short man alone on a planetoid, overseeing terraforming transformation.  He works for the galactic-mega-corporation HardCell.  A shipment of supplies arrives which includes Ox, a giant mute man.  Runt doesn't know if Ox is there to help him or kill him.  The story is about their working and living together.I love this author's clever and amusing terms.  I enjoyed the story.  It's different.  I wish it was longer.The Negatives:Some questions were never answered, for example who sent the kill kit and why.  I wanted to know a lot more about Ox, his past and why he was brought here.  The entire story is told from Runt's point of view.  Therefore I didn't see any of Ox's thoughts, motivations, or emotions, which I wanted to know.  Some of this could have been accomplished if Ox would have answered Runt's questions.  But Ox did not.DATA:Narrative mode: 3rd person Runt.  Kindle count story length: 1,643 (282 KB).  Swearing language: strong.  Sexual language: strong.  Number of sex scenes: about 4.  Setting: unknown time on a planetoid.  Copyright: 2011.  Genre: erotic sci fi gay male fiction.
