You know, if you quote the whole of Stross' blurb, it sounds very different. "Lesbians in space" makes it sound as if the only notable thing about the characters is their sexual orientation. But the full blurb is:

“Lesbian necromancers explore a haunted gothic palace in space!” ―Charles Stross

which, to me, seems pretty interesting.
