J.M. Snyder's "Persistence of Memory" (ebook), #38

Wow, that was beautiful. I mean it. Snyder's incredible talent for making her characters alive amazes me every time.

In this futuristic short novel, Joah was "culled", kidnapped to become a soldier in the army decimated by border wars. A chip was inserted into his mind and it stole all his memories - the only thing that he was able to keep was his name. After five years, Joah managed to escape and find his way back to Tobin, his husband, who never stopped loving him and hoping for his return...

The book is so full of unconditional love and hope that it made me all teary eyed when I read it. Fantastic!

Thanks! I'm always on the lookout for interesting eBooks, esp. futuristic ones.

I think that Snyder is together with Josh Lanyon my favorite author of gay books :)

I've read everything available on eBook by Josh Lanyon. I adore his Adrien English. I enjoy following his LJ, too.

Oh yes, Death of a Pirate King was my favorite part of Adrien English. Finally, Jake stopped being an asshole!

And I adored Ghost Wore Yellow Socks! \o/
