Wintersong - All Armand wants is to bridge the gap, all Peter wants is to move on.

In the Archives – The legend can't be true, or can it?

Amadan Na Briona – The fae have long taken humans for their companions

Carnival Nights – It's just a children's ride, nothing to be afraid of.

Perfect Match – Two men visit a matchmaker, who would have thought they were a perfect match?

Dinner with the Devil – When you dine in the devil's house make sure to set him a place.

The Poetry Game – My lover whispers to me.

Too Sweet to Eat – Even the best laid plans can go awry

Blacksmith – Who burns hotter, the blacksmith or his forge?

Dream A Little Dream – Arthur draws his dream into life.

Tapestry – Our past is written on our skin

Geisha – A male ninja masquerades as a geisha and his life will never be the same.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dark tales of Eros, unique and gripping
Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2015
Verified Purchase
Sessha Batto writes like no other … She weaves tales of Eros, often dark and twisted, yet the fabric is always unique and absolutely scintillating.

Her homoerotic stories span centuries and cultures, and they always leave me gasping, mesmerized, pulled into the riptide of emotion and sensual response. You have to read each gem in this collection to appreciate how one writer can so tellingly explore the spectrum of the human sexual psyche.

Adjectives come easily, yet no words can fully describe how a transgressive writer pulls and tears at the deepest threads that hold our secret sexual cravings together. Sessha is an Arachne, masterful weaver of words. Spider Woman, a writer whose time and fame will come.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating sampling of dark and fearsome, poignant and troubling, sometimes uplifting tales
Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2014
Verified Purchase
Sex Ray Specs offers up a taste of horror and dark fantasy, of sensuality, poignant despair and the agony of loss. The themes are adult, the situations challenging, the promise of happy-ever-after elusive in the face of reality. There are twists and turns and unexpected outcomes.
Sex Ray Specs, homoerotic fiction, may not be to everyone's taste, but if you are adventurous in spirit, I think you can find much to your liking in this collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars an exceptional collection of dark and moody love
Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2014
Sex Ray Specs was a wonderful collection of stories. Some are short and others much longer, and this variation made it all the more interesting. There's a story for every mood in this, from Gabriel the delicious blacksmith, to the horned god kidnapping a mate on All Hallow's Eve. Perhaps the best of the bunch is the final tale of Yoshi forced into geisha training. I am always educated reading Sessha's work, immersed into other cultures, and delighting in her dark imagination. Her writing is convincing, you are immediately immersed into the emotions of the characters and completely into their environment.

This may be a collection of m/m dark romance but I didn't find that isolated the reader in any way. It's told with such aplomb that I was no longer aware of their sexes but rather invested in the outcome and their journey as each tale unfolded. There's a ghost story I just loved. I cared about the heartbreak forced onto a couple pressed to follow tradition rather than their hearts, and I really adored the concept of drawing your lover and having their shadow come to life to touch and kiss you. Wow this author's imagination is chilling and visceral and so very exceptional. I can't recommend this enough!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Gamut of Emotions
Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2014
From the beautiful and sad Wintersong to an excerpt from Shadow Wolf, this is a series of erotic short stories that fills the mind not only with images, but with emotion. We are all of flawed and we all have our issues, and those concepts of human nature are explored well. This is more than reading erotic tales; this is unveiling humanity.

The reader is put through a gamut of emotions. Love lost, love gained, tragedy, humour, sadness, delusion and more. From Eastern landscapes into Western, through a Celtic realm into times past and present, beyond reality into dreams and myth, I’d say here is a tale for suited to each of us.

Loved it, and loved the author’s no frills no fuss approach. She uses her words well. In my opinion, every tale is pure poetry, and yet every tale is simplicity itself. Lovely work and well worth reading. In a strange way, I feel as if sat with a sage and listened to words of wisdom. Thank you. Sessha – I’ll be back for more!
