Jack's Viking Sky

Jack's Viking Sky is a slash 493,352-word series of eight novels by Mitch Hudson. In this story Jack and Daniel are stranded on another planet. The bad news is that Jack is sick. The good news is that Daniel's blue eyes and blond hair work like a charm and mark him as a gift of the gods. Not so good about that status is that the people aren't allowed to help them for free because offering one like Daniel charity would insult the gods. Luckily the gods don't have anything against prostitution. Daniel becomes a holy prostitute, has to wear a veil, and gets firsthand experience of how incredibly HUGE the Viking men all are. Earth men are small and delicate compared to them and Daniel has some trouble adjusting to his new role because the incredible size of these men makes sex a bit difficult.
