“Sword Dance” is a trilogy of very #queer books set in a fictional Greco-Roman fantasy world with a bit of mystery by A.J. Demas.
Damiskos is a retired army officer working for the quartermaster corps since his parents spent the family fortune, and the army doesn’t pay much in the way of retirement. He’s been sent to a seaside villa to negotiate the purchase of fish sauce from the owner, who happens to be an old friend from the capital city. It’s supposed to be a bit of a vacation, but on arrival, he finds the house filled with philosophy students and a businessman from a neighboring island state who also has a captivating eunuch slave, Varazda. It soon becomes clear that there’s a lot more going on than a weekend house party, and Damiskos doesn’t like being in the middle of it.
