A friend of mine was complaining today that he couldn't find any good novels where the main character was (like him) a gay guy. I read very little published fiction, and he doesn't read fanfic, so I couldn't help. But maybe you can!
He doesn't like paranormal stuff (no werewolves or vampires, he specified) nor is he looking for erotica/romance. Beyond that I think he's open to different genres.
Where should I point him?

And just so it's not the case that I only recommend books about spies in Cambridge, I also like the Tales of the City books by Armistead Maupin. They have an ensemble cast, but if there is a main protagonist, he's a gay man.
