Lucky in love and air battles, Josh kisses his talismans before missions - a St. Christopher medal given him by his mom and a small Buddha presented to him by his gorgeous Thai lover, Malinee. Successes are many, but Josh also experiences loss of comrades, flight crashes and ill-fated rescue missions. The big question is whether he can survive the bittersweet trauma of love.

Kiss the talisman and enjoy the journey!
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.EMME Some cravings cannot be denied. That was me with CNC. Going to clubs didn't make me feel... anything anymore. I wanted a soul-wrenching, destructive encounter with a stranger. Being kept by someone... in a basement, or in a cage, like a bird or a treasured object? I could pretend, couldn't I? As long as we had a code, the beginning was SANE. That would be fine. All good. But when he didn't say THE word... THAT word. I wonder if he is just messing with me? Or is this real? HIM Who knew that one day I would do what I had fantasized about for years? Or that my best friend would insist on joining me. This is fun. Filthy. Darker than a grave with the hole filled in, except she isn't getting killed. I might keep her forever, though I'm not telling her that. Or that I'm not the man she arranged to meet. I open my door and study this precious creature I've caught, from her toes to those pretty, tear-filled eyes. This story has a HEA but for some that will not be enough. There are more triggers in this dark tale than stars in the sky.

The Talisman Cock!, debut novel from award winning poet and short fiction writer Henry Joseph Russell, follows sixteen-year-old David Smith, a talented cross country runner from Cape Cod who believes he's living his "Personal Destiny" when he earns a scholarship to a prestigious boarding school near Boston. Alas, David's new roommate, a notoriously womanizing and wildly confident ice hockey prodigy named Johnny Connolly, doesn't believe in Destiny. A sort of metaphysical libertarian (and libertine!), Johnny claims "Jesus powers" of meditation and visualization have helped him fashion his "perfect reality," a life defined by countless one-night-stands, lofty athletic glory, and his most cherished "creation: " a rather large male organ he's lovingly named his "Talisman Cock!" But, when David becomes a hesitant disciple to Johnny's bizarre teachings, he unveils a stranger secret hidden behind his roommate's spiritual bravado: a Greater Destiny they both share. The Talisman Cock! is a modern, coming-of-age classic for young adults and adults alike. Tackling dynamic theological and philosophical issues with humor, eloquence and grace, Russell has penned an American, boarding-school yarn worthy of the pantheon beside A Separate Peace and The Catcher in the Rye.
