The only respectable young Eunuch story I can name is The Persian Boy and that was a historical novel. It was set two thousand years in the past.

Why doesn't Barns and Nobel or Boarder's Book carry young Eunuch stories set in modern day America? Why can't you find anything like that on Amazon?

When are we going to go main stream?

Speaking from the land of dreams and wishes, but with 100% honesty, too, I'll say this: If I win over a million in a lottery (I'm one of those foolish idiots who spends 20 bucks a paycheck on them), I guarantee you I'll fund a 10,000-run paperback edition of your first novel-length book, and I can buy my way onto at least a few retail shelves through presently active connections.

Back to reality; good question. Probably too squicky for any publisher. Although some of the very small but well-connected 'self-publish' companies are willing to touch nearly anything.

Dear Jamiepan

Thank you for the vote of confidence. Once the lock down ends I'll be submitting a lot of stories.

But it would be nice if there was any money in this. It would be great if I could devote myself full-time to writing and see if I could really raise the quality. As it is l only write at odd moments. ��

David Holly has some books on Amazon. It's a world in which males are tricked into using a lube called "minibate". It's addictive and everytime a male uses it his junk gets smaller and smaller until he becomes a eunuch.

No. Just no, no, no! I've read this one, and it's terrible! The characters are cutouts, the science is wonky, and the plot it just... I don't have a word for it. Recycled? Overstated? Don't waste your time.

Our hero is a young boy who is kidnapped from his village in Africa (forget where) along with a few of his friends. They are taken out into the desert, and castrated by a 'pro' circumcision fellow. I think only our hero survives. He is then sold to a wealth Arab (I think it was). He grows up as a household slave, and when he escapes, he finds life in the real world. He discovers testosterone, eventually, but never gets over the shame of having been a eunuch, and being unable to have sons.

Somehow, he falls in with a doctor/scientist who is into human cloning. They clone the guy, and it works. He gets the son he always dreamed of. As the boy grows up, though, our hero is worried that the clone will be sterile, and sure enough, he is. He hits puberty, but his testicles make no sperm.

Then there's the revenge plot, as I said, which isn't worth reading.

Respectable? Young? Eunuch? Grotto? Snakes? Sharp knife? Absolute power corrupts absolutely?

D.C. the Dark City is available on Amazon.

In the world of the wealthy and powerful elite, two secret societies discover the key to absolute power is mutually assured blackmail. Since nothing is worse than child abuse, it is the basis of extortion. What follows is unimaginable depravity, the seduction, rape, torture, and murder of the innocent and unprotected. In Umbris writes from the shadows, using the perspective of an insider to expose vile secrets.

Reviewer comments: Sickeningly graphic! Shocking and amazing. I read it in two sittings.This is a very difficult book to digest. The amount of evil portrayed is ... well it's indescribable. It made me feel dirty every time I picked it up. But I wanted to know. If you really want to know, this book is a must.

Sounds alot like the world s current fascist leaders ! It must be non fiction !

From what I could glean from the reviews and the intro of the book (using the "click to see inside!" button), it seems like he's selling it as sort of, if you will, 'disguised reality'. Like, it seems as if he (the author) is trying to say he's worked and lived on the 'inside' and has seen a bunch of the stuff in the book himself. But, of course, he's had to spin things to be able to get the book printed.

I dunno. Seems like a fun book if you like being terrified and feeling righteous rage, but as for being 'real', I doubt it. I think it's somebody who's healthy concern for similar victims has grown to make him write a book that's extremely heavy-handed. I'd rather it be written as fiction that tells a story more metaphorically.

20 years ago, I'd have read D.C. the Dark City right away and ate it up. But now? Ugh. Between knowing a thing like Epstein's kiddy island really exists, and the habit of people to use the internet for ridiculous theories like Pizzagate, I don't want to support fiction that plays with the truth.

Goodness, I sound like an angry man here... sorry! I saw too much ugliness on Reddit today, I think. I gotta stop looking at people acting badly on there.

"River God" by Wilbur Smith is a good book, and has been mentioned here before. Our hero is a mid-teen at the time of his nullification, however, and then grows up within a couple of chapters. If you like 'things Egyptian', with or without the eunuch topic, it's still a good read.

"Cry to Heaven" by Anne Rice, while a huge departure from her normal fare, is just OK. It's not blah, but it stretches things a bit. No pun intended. It's all about a revenge plot in the height of the Italian castrati era, and has a nice twist at the end. The sex-capades are a bit on the side of pushing it, though, and our hero (while castrated a bit older than most) is the main focus of the novel. It's not a laugh riot, and there are points where you struggle to get through it. As I recall, fans of Rice's vampire Lestat, etc., were shocked by this book, and rightly so. It's probably one of the more famous ones out there with eunuch characters, in that she built the whole story around a young boy being castrated and wanting revenge.

"Eunuch" by Lustgarten, as I said, was just awful. My compassion for the hero ran out shortly after he escaped into the real world, and when the cloning thing came up, I was done. I forced myself through it, though. You can read it up to that point, but then it goes over a cliff. I have to give him a "E" for effort, instead of just a flat out "F" for fail, in that he managed to get it published to begin with!

"The Persian Boy" was entertaining, and quite historically accurate. You feel for Bagoas, the hero. There's one scene early on when Darius is overthrown (?) - well, someone is overthrown, I think it was him... and the Bagoas is hiding, on the run, realizing that he's "loot". Mary Renault does a great job building his character, leading up to, during, and the period of adjustment after his castration/nullification and how it affects him mentally. If Lustgarten had read this one first, or paid attention to it if he did, then "Eunuch" might have been a better read. You genuinely feel for Bagoas, and wonder where the story is taking him next.

I don't know if there is a novelization of the film "Farinelli", and frankly, I hope not. It couldn't be much worse than the historically inaccurate movie, though. About 10% of the film's run time is spent on Carlo's (his real name) childhood, and the whole plot of Farinelli vs. Handel is overblown.

"Let the Right One In" or "Let me In" has seen a couple of movie adaptations, and while the whole idea of our hero being a eunuch is just a throw-away shock bit, it's there. If you're into low budget vampires, I suppose you might like it.

"John the Eunuch" is a series of mystery novels by a group of authors. John, however, is an adult when castrated as a result of being captured in a military campaign by the enemy. It's sort of like "Murder She Wrote", only with a Byzantine Era adult eunuch instead of Angela Lansbury. They're not bad novels, if you're into that sort thing. Younger eunuchs are only mentioned rarely in passing, though. You can find them here: CLICK HERE

Even George RR Martin's much-hyped "Game of Thrones" didn't really center on younger eunuchs, but for a little bit in his description of the making of the Unsullied. To be honest, I didn't read any of it, or watch the series. I was told by someone that had he submitted the chapter about the Unsullied to EA, that I would have rejected it on the grounds of cruelty for the sake of cruelty only. It's probably a foregone conclusion that there's not a market out there for (shameless self-promotion here!) a hardback or even paperback run of "The Boys of Blue Creek." Just not going to happen. Perhaps the collected works of Byzwriter here on EA could be? Look him up if you haven't. He's one of the greats at EA.

We've come quite a ways in the last 20 years or so, but mainstream just isn't ready (and maybe never will be) for a such a topic.

In the movie "let Me In" the human boy is being sexually threatened by the bullies. They call him a girl. When he saw that his young vampire friend wasn't a girl at all but a nullified boy he was looking at his own future. By becoming her human servent (slave) he'd never function as a complete male. The boy wasn't physical castrated but at the end he was phycologically nullified.

At least that's my take on it.
