The one thing that never stayed entirely professioal was Violet’s encounters with one specific client, who of course is the main love interest.
After the initial deciding on the job and training, the day to day work at the milking farm becomes quite matter of fact, which I did enjoy seeing. Lastly there are the work, and the romance between Violet and one of her repeat clients. themselves, but more about what some of their daily lives in a modern (predominantly human) world looks like, the accomodations and adaptions they have made. I also suspect this sets the ground work for the shared universe series this book is part of.Īnd I enjoyed it a lot! There wasn’t super much detail about the different beings, the minotaurs, elves, vampires, ogres, trolls, orcs, centaurs, etc. The milking farm is in the middle of a multi-cultural suburb which Violet explores for a significant amount of time, and a good chunk of the book is spent on her misadventures, encounter and observations as a human having lived in human-majority places alll her life. It’s not all massive bull dongs and hand jobs here, oh no, there’s plenty of exploration of the world of inhuman creatures too. This brings me to the third thing I really enjoyed, which was the worldbuilding. It’s just ridiculous enough to be funny and have a good laugh, but within the scope of this fictional world where beings from myths and legends are sharing our world, complete with all the adaptions and concessions such world would have to make to make this cohabitation feasible, this is just one more weird niche. Of course there is little plausibility in minotaur semen being the #1 ingredient in viagra, therefore its in high demand and “milking farms” being big pharma’s response to that demand. Because it was done in a very plausible and professional, as well as clinical, manner.
The second thing, which I maybe should have expected, was the way the entire “so my job is to jerk off minotaurs now” was handled.
Not gonna lie, it felt so uncannily accurate to me that I even got annoyed with her because it felt so familiar and these are the things I get annoyed with in myself too. Because my god was it spot on for the way my anxiety works too. One of the first things that stood out to me was the main character, Violet’s, anxiety.
