When the wrestling team starts handing him around like popcorn, Ron d...

A young college student runs afoul of a rural county police, court, and jail system when a friend leaves drugs in his car. Railroaded into a thirty-day stint in jail, the student gradually learns what he has to do in a system where the men in charge—jailers and prisoners alike—are both corrupt and ever in the mood for male-male sex.

What gay male can ever forget his first full-blown sexual experience, which can be a particularly memorable first time given the conventions of society? It can be the culmination of long-held frustration, or it can be casual and come as a complete surprise. It can be traumatic, or it can have been sought. It can be imprisoning or releasing, disappointing or far beyond the wildest dream. It can be prearranged or ritualistic, or it can be spontaneous and unexpected by both parties. The exper...

In the six-story anthology Habu’s Christmas Balls, habu gives us a wide range of romance, drama, and humor encountered by young gay men trying to muddle through the Christmas season. The settings range between Germany, the eastern United States, Merry Olde England, Bermuda, and the mountains of California, and the situations are sometimes tense, more often humorous, and frequently romantic. But they are always intricate, with a message, and, as always with habu, laced with hot gay male sex...

Kavanagh has brought with him his own personal vice of hunting youn...

The subject of priests or ministers as sex partners with other men is one of the more taboo subjects in the writing of erotica. Habu has tackled this theme in gay male writing before, though, so naturally, as a publisher, we urged him to gather some of the stories in a subject-specific anthology, which has resulted in Priest Play. We gleaned nearly a dozen previously published stories that included priests at sex play from habu’s various anthologies, and, in addition to these, he wrote fiv...
