I love fantasies, which is why I instantly downloaded this on my KINDLE. I wasn't disappointed. Faewolf hearkened back to my teen years when I practically absorbed fantasy tales with wolves and vampires and monsters of all sorts - the only difference, I had to use my youthful imagination to distort the characters and the narrative to make them gay.

Not so with Faewolf, where the gayness of the characters is at the heart of the tale. An awesome and seXy read for all lovers of fantasy, tasteful erotica, and any combination thereof. If they ever make this into a movie, I'm SO there! ~

5.0 out of 5 stars More please, June 5, 2009

I've been following Atkins and Taylor's joint writing in the Harry Potter fan fiction arena for years, and I am delighted to see them finally publishing a work of original fiction together.

Kiya is an endearing character that I'm sure we've only scratched the surface on in Faewolf. As always, Atkins and Taylor do not disappoint. The sex is hot. I love that they don't shy away from the scenes of violence and sexual perversity. Some of the scenes may be a bit too intense for some readers, but not for this reader. I applaud their audacity and can't wait to read more of Kiya and Brian!

Ya know, looking back on this story, I have to agree with pretty much all the other reviews. But I would also like to interpolate a few of my thoughts on this story as well.

First, the story is not about two main characters, it's about three, Brian(human aspect of faewolf), Kiya(student lover) and Saoi(wolf aspect of faewolf). Most of the reviews centered on the usual two main characters that story plots seem to utilize. But in reality, the wolf personality, plays just as much a part as the other two, and not just in the bedroom. He has his own unique personality that I absolutely fell in love with! Unlike most other werewolf story's that I have read, these author's went above and beyond portraying that aspect of the werewolf/faewolf. Most story's just kind of gloss over the dual personality of that type of character and the changes it goes through when shifting. But this one, well, you really get a feel for the wolf and how it actually interacts and takes over the other half of it's personality, and I'm not just talking about the yummy torrid scenes between the wolf and Kiya.

Which leads me to another point, if a reader is disgusted by the wolf/human scenes, then I have to say, kudo's to the writer's!
For that means that they are doing their jobs as author's in cleverly and imaginatively drawing up their story. But,if anyone finds it offensive, it may help to recall that the author's stated in the story that Brian is a "faewolf" and not a werewolf. And that is more kin to a God like creature then an animal. And, as in much other types of mythology, i.e. Greek mythology, God images can come down to earth to interact with humans in any form they want. Zeus did it all the time. ;) LOL


But, in conclusion, the reader is also made aware of the possibilty that Kiya may be more then just a human as well, that he may have some magic in him that he isn't even aware of. It would be nice to have a sequel that expanded that concept. It would also be nice to have more stories that included native american myth's! Now, that would be cool!
