What is the novel "Archie"?

It is an X-rated, Gay, Horror Story

It is a Gay, Gothic Romance

It is a Victorian, Occult Fantasy

Two young men discover their attraction to men and in particular to each other. Archie and Percy come from different strata of Victorian Society, but their friendship quickly blossoms into an intimate one.

Can their idealised, romantic friendship survive the class difference and the Victorian disapproval of close male friendships? But there are worse tests to come. The story takes them into the world of the Occult and into truly shocking horrors.

This gothic novel is not for the squeamish or faint-hearted. The reader is challenged by the horrific events in the book.

Written in an old-fashioned, romantic style, "Archie" describes male attractions in lyrical, sensual, homoerotic detail. It is not written as modern gay porn might be written, but rather reflects the innocence and yearning of young Victorian men, whose homosexual inclinations are well closeted. It is set at the time when Oscar Wilde was sentenced to hard labour and our two heroes have to travel a difficult path of intimacy.

In "Archie", Richard Peters writes some of his greatest homoerotic passages and weaves these with the occult in a startling way. Here we read of the Victorian fascination with fairy fantasy and the occult teachings that were burgeoning, in the West, at that time. The novel is at once superbly erotic and horrifically frank. It will delight and repulse you in equal measure.

Like all Richard Peter's erotic novels, we get explicit descriptions of Male/Male sex. It is a piece of XXX rated gay pornographic fiction, only for those legally allowed to read such works and is not intended to be read by those who would be shocked by explicit descriptions of homosexual intercourse.

The author, Richard Peters, is a prolific writer of erotic fiction. His works, while containing explicit, gay, erotic porn descriptions never fail to move his readers emotionally.

He has written many other novels and short stories and they will all be produced, one by one, for the Kindle. His favourite themes concern straight men being seduced by other straight, bisexual or gay men. He likes to investigate the sexuality of his characters, as he believes sexuality is not a simple black and white dichotomy (gay/straight). He believes there are many shades of grey in between.

His exciting work is for the discerning gay reader as well as for other adventurous males, willing to discover the edges of their sexuality - if they are brave enough to explore.
