The Court of Bones
Four princes. One hero. Many men. But in a kingdom at war with itself, only one man can be king.'The Court of Bones' tells the story of one young man, surviving on his wits and his looks and his considerable sexual skills in a court made treacherous by the infighting of the ruling family. Can he find a path to safety when there is danger on every side? Can he find a path to love?Zac Baker's gay fiction is often situated within his fantasy world of Guya - a place a little like other fantasy worlds, except a lot gay-er.
It isn't a world of orcs, elves and dwarves. Instead this is a thoroughly human place, full of human emotion. Love and lust, jealousy and fear. But hope too, and kindness. Generosity as well as envy. Selflessness as well as pride. Bravery as well as cowardice. It is a place of magic too. Of princes and paupers and pirates, of golden temples and thieves' dens, of merchants' caravans crossing scorching deserts, and bustling trade ports playing host to ships from every nation.
Anything can happen in Guya. But the thing that happens most often is that men fall in love, or fall to seduction. Every single one, handsome? Not quite. But if you imagine Zac's heroes as muscular men with inches to spare, panache and style dripping from those handsome bones, then you wouldn't be far wrong. The Arabian Nights? The Game of Thrones? Medieval history or ancient legend? Zac finds his inspiration in many places.
He mixes his ingredients into something wholly new. Guya: welcome to a world. Deep gay eroticism, immersed in a fantasy history that feels wholly real, 'The Court of Bones' is written with heart and heat, and a tenderness that is rare in this genre. It's a compelling tale from an author whose writing is original, exciting and exploding with invention.
