A Rude Awakening

The final volume of the Horatio Stubbs trilogy, available as an ebook for the first time.

The war is over but our hero, Horatio Stubbs, is still in Sumatra and still narrating his sexual adventures.

Brian says: “In the third (and last) of the HAND REARED BOY series, equatorial juices flow. Stubbs is now in Sumatra, the official war being over. But the birth pains of the new Indonesian republic interfere with Stubbs’s sexual involvements with, among others, two Chinese ladies.”
