This is a graphic novel. I read the traditional novel on P.L. Nunn's Website and found it really interesting. Yhalen is a young man with special power: he can heal the people and heals himself using the power of nature.
But a brutal race, the Ogres, came down from the mountain and take with them destruction and death. Yhalen is taken in captivity and brutalized and raped. Thanks to his healing power he survives and he is giving as a gift to an halfling, Bloodraven. Even if more similar to a man than an ogre, Bloodraven has still an impressive body. In the traditional novel the character of Bloodraven is more complex, more complete. You can better understand that he has some trait of gentleness in him. He doesn't want to hurt Yhalen, but in the first he considers him not more than a pet. He satisfies his desires with the young man, no matter if Yhalen is willing: but he is aware of the phisycal weakness of the man, and he has care not to kill him.
Yhalen is confuse, he can't understand how he can feel phisycal pleasure during sex with Bloodraven. But the pleasure is there and in the end, Yhalen arrives to desire the pain/pleasure given by Bloodraven. Yhalen is not a strong character, he flows the event, he is a gentle soul trapped in a crazy world.
The graphic novel ends at the very beginning of the story, a story you can read for entire on the site.
