REVIEW:      

This story was different to anything else I’ve ever read before, and I’ve read a lot a books across many genres. As per the blurb Gray Fox heads out in in his canoe to visit his childhood friend Elk. Along the way he ends up on a mysterious Island. A person appears out of the mist, at first she appears as a woman, complete with pert breasts glistening in the firelight. Then a strange thing happens and she takes on the form of a man. A young man happy to be taken from behind. I’d never heard of balls/scrotum being referred to as ‘stones’ so I learned a new term. “Fox redoubled his efforts. His stones slapped the firm flesh.”

Fox awakes unsure if he’d been dreaming, but quickly realizes it was no dream. He recalls the encounter to his friend, they return to the Island, and a number of revelations are made. But to say what they are would also give away the ending. If you want to know more, you’ll have to grab a copy.

The story is a fun read, albeit rather different. Kudo’s to the author for writing something so unique.
