This review first appeared on the website I write for, Boys Next Door.

I'll admit it, the idea of a female dominant society with a harem of men at their beck and call just makes me happy. I like it even more when the system is rotten and riddled with abuse. Doubly so when there are noble, self-sacrificing heroes who are going to move heaven and hell to save what's important to them.
This is a richly developed world, there are hints of the history of the civilization included in t More...

Wow.

That was my final impression after reading this story. Its been one of the most interesting and emotional experiences when reading an M/M title and definitely one of those that you'd want to use to introduce someone who's just starting to get interested in the genre.

4. man vs. machines/technology
5. man vs. the supernatural
6. man vs. self
7. man vs. god/religion

The Gold Warrior is certainly packed! It covers at least 2, 3, 4, and 6, maybe 7. I haven't read anything as dense in action and world building as More...

Well written and enjoyable fantasy story, centred on a soldier who learns the world he lives in and defends is mush less black and white than he's been trained to believe. The first person narration supports this gradual changing of the main character's world view. There's a sequel to this story, so there's no "happy ever after" at the end of this one, no easy answers to the characters's problems. I'm looking forward to reading the sequel and seeing how the new situation the protaganis More...
