Desert Stars

by Ramona Meisel

With over 80 chapters containing unique poetic prose, Desert Stars tells the story of two Egyptian boys, Horus and Set, growing from friends with benefits to something more. It is a modern novella that shows the difficult way of claiming your own sexuality, coming out and stop shaming yourself. This story is meant as a love letter to people still growing, and not being ashamed of who they are.

Even while including a lot of symbolism and names from Egyptian mythology, this book is not a traditional modern retelling. Yet you're free to read it as one.
