Marquesate specialised in
contemporary gay military fiction.
Using
the insider knowledge of the 'bowels' of the military machinery
and the insight into the soldiers' minds and modes of functioning,
Marquesate created realistic settings, situations and characters
who were simultaneously down to earth and larger than life.
These men were strong, aggressive, tough and independent, and
it was their determination and truthfulness to themselves and
their comrades in arms, that became their saviour and their
downfall.
These
soldiers were grounded in their military context and thrown
into a maelstrom of duty, comradeship, hostility and courage,
to emerge scarred, battle-hardened and touched at the very
core of their selves - by an enemy, a friend, a foe or an
ally.
No-holds
barred, often hard and brutal, Marquesate's
fiction always carried a punch.
