Can't wait to read the book!

Pawesome!

Really great job Kyell, congratz!

Sold:)

GAH.

I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS BOOK.

I'm curious to see how the story is going to build from here, especially regarding the situation with his parents.

Curious. I am curious.

Oh how you draw me into this world already. I so can't wait for it to come out.

I got kinda confused there.. the moment he sees the list of books from his classmate, the moment he buys the book online, and the moment he opens the book in his room to start reading seem to happen at the same time, in the span of one afternoon. The way it was worded made the time frame hard to discern..

i agree, it was a little confusing. I had to re-read that paragraph a couple times to get a clear idea

I remember you said that vegetarianism would be an issue in one of your stories...^^
I shall be looking forward to the, alas again quite late, e-release... ^^ ()

This is amazing! I really got into this even though it was a tiny snippet of a larger story. I want to see how this conversation gets resolved so badly now. You're a great writer!

I must say, really a good story. Never read anything furry before and I am quite impressed!

Thanks!

In fact, just ordered this book for myself!

Every time I pick up another sample of your work, I experience so many feelings.
I know that's not very descriptive, but I'm not sure how else to describe the sensation. I'm inundated with memories leaking out from old graves I buried them in so many years ago; the ghosts of old scars tattoo themselves into the surface of my mind once again like hot iron brands. For a while it's just me and your words, and the stories that unfold are old stories I've heard before - new stories I've needed to hear.

I'm left wistful and empty, but confident and full. It's painful, but it's a good, cathartic sort of pain. I wouldn't give it up for anything.

Thank you for writing, Kyell.

Aw, thank you for that lovely comment!

And this is just the first part of the first chapter! ;)

I know! I meant it also in reference to everything else I've read of yours. But I'm definitely looking forward to the rest of it!

^ that. Right there, Vahn. Bullseye.

I was at FCN and when I saw this book, it caught my interest right away. I'm bout half way through and it's great. A little different cause of the two stories going on, but it's grrreat!

This was a great book! It made me laugh a little and cry a little towards the end. But all in all fantastic! I've got all of your novels and this one was by far one of my favorites! I really hope you'll do a sequel to this as I felt the story was far from over. Oh and I loved Nikki! He was one of my favorite charcters you've ever written about. So sad though...

I loved this book so much <3 it's a;ways on my kindle ready to go!

I just finished reading the entire book after purchasing it from my first convention at Califur. I know my friends tried pressuring me into drinking absinthe while reading it to it's full effect. And as much as I believe that they could be true, that there would be a bit more than I desired if I accepted it, I'm at least glad to say I didn't need it to read this book.

It's simply wonderful, and well written. I applaud you Sir Gold. This has definitely been a well invested buy.

AND OH LORD THE ENDING AND THE DRAMA AND AGDHSGSGsfdsafdsgd so juicy.

Aw, thanks! :)

I knew I'd like this just from this excerpt. And now that I've read it, I have to say, it's one of my favourite stories from you yet. It was just so emotionally involving. I was really rooting for Sol the whole way through. This is definitely one I need to read again.

(btw I write some more about it here.)

Aw, how sweet. Thanks for the journal entry and comment! And hey, I'll see you at Confuzzled next year, hm? :)

If I make it to Confuzzled, you bet! I would love to meet you and maybe get a couple of books signed. I've not attended a con before, so...it depends on if I can muster the courage basically

Is it bad that I just now figured out why it's called it's called the green fairy?

im done with reading that book since yesterday, nice story but sadly a pretty hard ending, especially with that poor fox.
but so far Volle is my favorite ^^.

I bought more of that cheap absinthe. It only reminds me of Niki and Sol, But at least now I have a proper absinthe spoon.

Picked up this audiobook on audible a few days ago and I know I'm waaaaaaay late but this story really touched me! I loved it, connected with the struggles Sol has with family and their expectations, coming out and such and felt so bad for Nickki! (If I'm spelling that correctly).
Absolutely a masterpiece, thank you Kyell for your masterful storytelling and sharing your talent!
