Basilisk Tales Book 1: Dark Descent by Riane Lasair

[reviews_and_ramblings]

In a futurist planet the men are divided in upper-worlders and under-worlders and they live apart. But then a man from upper-world develop a lethal virus and escape in the under-world. Brandish and four other men are sent to the Council of under-world to ask help. And the Council ask Vee, a powerful empath, to help Brand in his hunt. Vee has always avoided the contact with other men, cause his gift is so powerful that he feels sick among the other people, but Brand seems to be a shield for the pain. And Brand his more than happy to claim this young man... only a little problem... Vee is not soo young as he looks.

Brand is a man driven by emotions. Even if he is a soldiers, he seems to follow more his heart (or another muscle of his body, if you understand what I mean) than his brain. And Vee is unable to resist to this man, he is stunned and helpless in front of Brand's passion.

The story is rather short and it is only a first enstalment of a series: it ends so abruptly that I will sure buy at least another chapter, to know how this two men, from different world, and with very different lifes, could be manage to stay together.
