This last month, several final volumes came out, concluding many of the series I've been reading. I've been very, very pleased with the conclusions to some of my favorite series!
Winter Demon Vol. 4 is the conclusion to a fun, spicy series - a series where all the volumes held my interest. It's written by Yamila Abraham and the artwork is by Rhea Silvan. This is one of my favorite Yaoi Press published works, along side the Dany and Dany one-shots.
As the title says, it's about demons, hot, hot, sexy, lustful demons. It's sure to please the reader who likes their sex steamy and visual. But what I love, it's softened by the gentle, slowly developing romance between the monk, Hakuin, and the winter demon, Fuyu. The secondary characters also hold their own, and have their own interesting side stories that are cleverly woven into the main storyline. The story comes to its rightful conclusion in the last volume.
The gist of the story goes like this: The monk, Hakuin was tricked by the villagers and forced to sacrifice himself to the winter demon, Fuyu. He was raped by Fuyu. but was let go. A year later, Fuyu, with Hakuin's help, saves the village from fire demons, and this begins their journey on the road to forgiveness, redemption and love. A beautiful story mixed with some very lustful scenes :)
It's a series I'll keep on my bookshelf. The art, while different from the Japanese sensibility, is very expressive. The demons are very pleasing to look at. *drool* I highly recommend it.
