Feast of the Flesh by A.D. Christopher

[reviews_and_ramblings]

Padraig and Caradoc were lovers in the ancient Britain. Padraig as priest and Caradoc as the river god Padraig worshipped. But christianity demands that all the men worshipped only a god and if priests refuse to do so, pain and suffer will bring to their village. So Padraig denied his god and lover with words, but his heart remained true. But Caradoc was banned cause the betrayal and suffers centuies of exile.

Now on the Samahin night of a post-apocalitc world, Caradoc is back to take his vengeance on the reincarnated soul of Padraig. Patrick is a twenty five years old survivor, who feels a strong connection with this man he approaches on Samhain night. But now he will be strong enough to not betray Caradoc again?

A brief novel with some interesting points. The setting is pratically no existent: it could be a post apocalitic world like our ages, like the past. All you read is about Caradoc and Patrick. The sex is very explicit and graphic, very detailed and almost all the book. Is not bad: if you want to read some very sexy scenes, you have your book. But I can feel something more under it, and will be glad to read a novel longer and with a more complete plot by this author.

Did you like this manga, then? I added it to my wishlist but none of the reviewers commented on the quality of the art or story. They were all ticked it wasn't a novel - which I can understand if you weren't expecting it. J'

I didn't read it yet. It's out only this month. But I'm not sure if I will buy it. I love the romance novel that inspire the story and I have also the book. Don't know if I'd appreciate the manga. I think I prefer a real manga, better a yaoi manga! elisa

I love yaoi! I'm so glad you discovered you like it as well. But, I enjoy the Anita comics so I'm not sure if I want to get this one. I don't read the Carpathian series anyway (don't want to get involved in another series to collect) so I'll have to think on it.
