Pawn to Queen Four
Lars Eighner has written a very funny novel with a surprising cast of characters that include drag queens, evangelical Christians, gay motorcycle gang members, and a whole lot of other friends of Dorothy that surprise and delight throughout the novel.
I started Pawn to Queen Four with some trepidation. Novels built around drag queens tend to leave me a little cold, but always open to new adventures, I decided to try it. Eighner didn't disappoint. Not a deep novel, PTQF is however, a funny book that gives us a little peek into the intriguing life of imperial drag courts with some fast-paced action and well developed characters.
Definitely a "take to the beach" novel for light reading that will keep you entertained all the way through.
