I recommend - empathic animal bond, been done, gay sex, way ahead of you... interesting and gender bending world view that doesn't break character with its setting? I am /so/ there.

There's interesting stuff going on, and I might've been able to appreciate that if my reaction to the rape scene hadn't obliterated everything else. Apparently a lot of other readers have been able to get past it with no problems.

I suppose I saw it as willing-participant sex, with his big problem being how totally it screwed his perception of who he was. I completely agree, if that scene felt like sexual violence to me, I would have liked the book much less.

You need unicorns for ASAP mental recovery! Sparkles optional.

Oh, Shadow Unit. At this point I'm not sure even my abiding lurve & respect for Emma Bull can tempt me over there.
