If Sol can just survive his last year of high school, he can escape his homophobic small town and go live with his Internet boyfriend for the summer. But when he loses his starting spot on the baseball team and converts to vegetarianism--a wolf, giving up meat!--his father threatens him with a hot, muggy summer working in the peach cannery unless he gets his act together. His teammates, who suspect his sexuality already, won't make it easy for him. But even with nobody on his side but his best friend Meg (who is even less popular than he is), the teenager finds answers and solace in an unlikely place a 1901 book about a tragic gay romance in the bohemian district of Lutece, around the famed Moulin Rouge. Inspired by the spirit of the era, Meg and Sol share a glass of absinthe, with startling effect Sol begins to dream that he is a cabaret dancer named Niki, offered a chance to escape his difficult life through romance--at the price of his beloved art of dance.
When the dreams seep into his waking life, Sol adds "going crazy" to his worries, and the problems of a couple that lived a hundred years ago to the ever-growing list of his own. To save both Niki and himself, Sol will have to learn the difference between reality and illusion, and discover what love and life mean to him.
Green Fairy Dangerous Spirits Book 1 edition by Kyell Gold Rukis Croax Literature Fiction eBooks
A surprisingly effective mixture of YA high school coming-of-age, coming out as gay, ghost story/time travel to the Nineteenth C. French club scene, with cross-dressing, a little light bondage, murder, baseball team and "furry" story, in which the characters are all partly animals, with tails and fur and some animal characteristics. Rather than merely relying upon the animal nature to explain character motivations (vain rooster, wise owl) Gold plays a little with the animal natures and different genres he's juxtaposing, and supplies well-developed characters who supply believable motivations for the developments of plot and story. The worst tragedies are safely sealed off in the past and more remote accounts, but these realities underlie the normal day-to-day perils behind the immediate worries about not making the team or not getting a car from the parents. The connections drawn to the 19th century French art and social milieu from a typical American suburban or small-town high school are effective and unexpected. All in well considered and executed prose. The green fairy of the title is absinthe, which the high schoolers experiment with in a sort of magical experiment that provides the door into time-travel or communication.Product details

Green Fairy Dangerous Spirits Book 1 edition by Kyell Gold Rukis Croax Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Never thought I'd much care for paranormal related gay furry stories compared to the fantasy and modern day stuff that Kyell has done, but of course, he made it work really well, holy crap, totally had me absorbed, I almost gave it a 4 out of 5, but it wouldn't of been for a very good reason, this fit perfectly
Having read/listened to the entire (as of right now) Out of Position series, buying another of Gold's works had seemed to become a habit.
I was initially surprised by the change in viewpoint (OoP through first person and Green Fairy in an omnipresent third throughout). I had also bought the audible audition so I could listen to the book at work when my boss was absent.
First thing about the audible audition is that it may take some time to warm up to the voice of the narrator. He portrayed most characters with a thick country twang, which was discouraging to me. At first. Actually, I flat out laughed so much when I heard the voice he used to play Sol's mother that my coworkers thought I was insane. However, according to the map that Gold provides in the beginning of "Isolation Play," you'll see that the setting of Green Fairy is in or near South Carolina. I fell in love with his voice acting in about chapter 3. So I completely recommend the audible edition.
As for the book itself...what can I say? Kyell Gold completely delivers, as usual, in his style that's motivated me to actually read a book. I'm a college student, and I would sometimes sacrifice precious sleep and stay awake until 3 in the morning just so I could find what happens next. I don't know if I've ever felt that kind of power in a book before. Sol's story was so moving and relatable. I was reminded of the troubles I had in discovering my own sexuality, and the fear of what would ensue when I finally found it. The fear of loneliness was like a shackle I couldn't escape from. I would sometimes find myself hoping that I could just go in the book and tell him that everything would turn out fine. I wanted to be there for him. I wanted to be his friend.
I feel like there's so much more I should say about this book, but I don't want to spoil it! Do yourself a favor and stop reading this review. Just...just buy it. Like, seriously. Do it now!
Knowing that Kyell Gold writes erotic books all the time, seeing this book with the PG-13 rating made me skeptical, but after reading the sample and the other reviews, I decided 'why not?' And spent the 10$, and I gotta say, it was well worth my time. There were a lot of points that made me go 'aww' or 'oh no he didn't' or 'dont do it!' Or just plot twists in general, and the subplot involving Jean and Niki interwinding with the plot point with Sol, Carcy and the others made me happy, sad, or scared in moments with them, and happy for what happened to them in the end. 10/10 best book I've ever read, can't wait to get book 2, and for book 3 to be released later in 2015
Kyell never fails to amaze me, no matter what era or place he uses for his stories. In this one, the one I liked the most was the Moulin Rouge, and I would definitely love to discover more about this grimly thrilling universe he created. I don't think I was ever as moved by any of his other characters as by the combined (mis)fortunes of Sol and Niki, even if my mixed feelings left me a little bit confused. But of course, confusion leads to contemplation, and so I kept finding myself thinking time and time again about how this story relates to me and my own life. It was not hard to find similarities, as I've just graduated from high school, and currently about to start college, even if in a country where pederastry [sic] is a lot... let's say less encouraged. But that's probably why I like to read these kinds of book anyways... so thank you Kyell for making this a possibility for me.
From my perspect, this book is a great read, and not just for fans of anthropomorphics, as the book puts scarce emphasis on sexual explicity, and is a lot more about life, and our struggle of finding something meaningful within it.
I think this is the best Kyell Gold book to date. "Out of Position" and "Isolation Play" which are Kyell's most famous books are pretty good too, however you can still feel a bit of shyness from the author to trust the story itself rather than using the erotic scene eye candy for the readers. In this book, Kyell shows the confidence on his own style and succeeds on it, you will find yourself following two storylines and I couldn't just decide which one I liked more, I did wanted to view more of the world in the Moulin Rouge and of the creatures that dwell within, nonetheless both stories are well-balanced and have a very good timing.
I did wish the book was longer, by the time you finish the book you'd wish you could know more about the main characters. This book is a must.
