"The Hunger Games” visits a Roman orgy on their way to the gay gladiator games. Don't expect new plot twists, and you won't be disappointed. |
Fantasy
World
|
1
|
Not enough detail - relies heavily on you referencing “The Hunger Games” world. The battles and game rules are seriously short changed. |
Tingle
|
3
|
Some hot scenes with good set up. Over quickly, lack detail. Non-consent, dubious consent, male/male action. |
Characters
|
2
|
Aspen is likeable if dumb. Other characters are not deeply drawn, and change behavior randomly. |
Story
|
1
|
Plot points follow “The Hunger Games” almost identically. You'll know what's going to happen next. |
“The
Hunger Gays” is pretty much as advertised - a gay version of
“The
Hunger Games”. If you like fan
fiction and slash,
this is a book for you. The writing isn't great, and you've read/seen
the story before. Women are portrayed either misgoynistically
or as goddesses which takes virgin/whore
representation to a whole new level.
It's worth your time to read if you
can't get enough of The Hunger Games, but definitely not worth the
$9.99 list price.
