Author Description

BarbarianSpy: Rough Sex: contains graphic language, m/m sex, fetish, and descriptions of reluctance, rough seduction and gay romance. These seventeen stories, in the second of habu's two "Spy Tails" anthologies, show an aspect of intelligence work very much in the vein of Graham Greene and John LeCarré but delving into spy craft operations that go well beyond where either of these authors dared to go. The reality of spying is that it isn't all Agent 007 glamour. There is a nasty, cynical, and even arousingly sexual underbelly to it, and these stories don't shy away from showing that, or from ignoring the difficult questions of the morality of taking advantage of the vulnerability and weakness of men who have a weakness for men in the pursuit of chits in the power games of nations. These stories not only show the substance of spy craft, but they also show how men are suborned to be U.S. intelligence Candy Store unit agents and then how they use other men to extract what their handlers want. If you are interested in the intersection of spy craft and man-on-man action, both volumes of habu's Spy Tails should be on your "must read" list.
