A Story of Love

Full title: A Story of Love
Author: Anthony Allion, Bede, Abba Book, with Mikki Allion.
Published: Garnet Press 2022
Format: Soft cover, e-book
Content: The story of how three very unusual men came into a three way relationship that involved some serious gender and species switching and babies all around. Anthony the Half Centaur, Bede a Harper recovered from post Roman Brittan, and Abba Book the very fey son of Molly Abba. In short each sired a child as a male, and bore a child as a female. The act took advantage of the multi-presence ability of the two primal beings Anthony and Book.
Said love is still a hot and going thing, several children later. All three are happily what ever gender they choose. As Anthony put it "Between Bede and myself last one to bed was the girl".
The book weaves the three narrative threads together enabled by Mikki Allion, as interviewer and editor. The point of the book being that love is not limited by physical constraints. Love whom you will. Magic make it interesting.
==Reaction==
The howl from the one man one woman, "Biblical marriage" types has supplied the heritage cattle market for years with all the cows they had over it. Oysters are screaming from the pain of all the clutched pearls. This is so far outside their comfortable norm as to be a genuine threat. There have been death threats. (Anthony is "bring it, you'll find out you are not going to Heaven.")
It has also been called a frank fiction. Who is this Bede person? Both Anthony and Book have stated...flatly...that every word is fact. Bede does not live on Earth H and owes the critics nothing.
The more liberal book buying public, like 90% of them, was mildly interested, but the total freak out reaction from the religious right is Streisanding the book into a best seller.
