Hammer & Air is a story of two young men who have not had an easy life. They have endured much pain and disappointment but in each other they have found kindness and love. This story is written using words and dialect indicative of old and poor times where education is rare. Hammer and Air are always in survivor mode; trying to find their next meal or place to sleep. This story flows at a steady pace providing character background and developing the storyline. Character development is well rounded and it is hard not to feel a gambit of emotions for these two young men. The sex scenes are M/F, M/M and M/M/M with bear shape shifting. The physical love expressed between Hammer and Air is both sizzling hot and emotionally enthralling. The use of the fairy tale genre is appropriate for a story of two young men who need hope and love after a lifetime of pain and disappointment. The sensual exploration and expressions of love are both intensely intimate. Hammer & Air is an interesting and sensual male to male fantasy story.
