This is a good read by Max Vos. It definitely shows that gay guys aren't necessarily sissies. This is a book for real men about conditions of war involving cruel terrorists. Simultaneously, there are more sexual acts than I've probably ever seen in one relatively slender volume. Many are forced and repulsive; other are loving and endearing. For real manly gay guys I recommend "P.O.W." by Max Vos. You won't be disappointed.Product details

This was an amazing read. I think some will find it difficult and it is in some places. It deals with torture, which is never easy to read about. However the overwhelming point of the story is love. Love of friends, lovers, family and family to be.
Sam and Benoit have served together, been best friends for a long time. Sam has secretly loved Benoit all that time. When they are captured by the Taliban, all Sam can think of is protecting Benoit, getting him home to his family. As they are held captive, an Arab named Abbas comes into Sam's cell. There is an instant attraction. Abbas becomes Sam's guardian angel.
There are some tough torture scenes, a great action scene and lots and lots of hot sex. I enjoyed the story and all the characters. It's not for the faint of heart, but if you can deal with it, you will be well rewarded.
For people with strong hearts to read.
Just…. *breathe*…
P.O.W. is deep and raw and emotional and confronting. I know I have frequently and loudly, both in this forum and on my personal reviews, said how much I adore this author, and this book has only deepened and firmed my opinion. This book is one that I needed a while to sit with and analyse where my feelings and emotions would end up landing. I want to take this time to advise that this is not exactly what you are used to from Max Vos. Having said that, one of the things I love about Max’s books is the hope and love and care he has for his characters in general, and this one especially.
Stone is the character whose POV we see and I love him. He has this need to protect those around him and takes it as a personal affront when he can’t. Stone and Benoit’s internment takes on sinister undertones from almost he start, and even though they go through hell, their reactions and actions are believable. All the characters in play are wonderfully fleshed out, with their own reasons and backstories that we catch glimpses of, including Benoit and Abbas, but for me it is Samuel J Stone’s story. It is obvious that the care and diligence that went into this story does NOT just rest on the so called good guys, but with all of them. This is the reason that I love Max’s books because no matter how small the character is in the story they are like a real person to this author and even if WE the reader don’t know the story behind them, HE does.
Again another advisory as it is not a typical boy meets boy love story. Not by a long shot. Sso pull up your big girl panties and get ready for a few very uncomfortable moments. Having said that however, the love story is remarkably sweet and wonderful with undertones of anxiety and fear. It is like one of those sweet/sour lollies with the hard and sour coating and gooey sweet ending… Well maybe not gooey sweet, but enough that I (being the biggest HEA proponent I know) was more than happy with where everyone ended.
I don’t want to go into too much of what Stone and Benoit go through as it is not my story to tell. But I will ask you to remember this when reading this book. Another charater in a book I loved was dealing with a loved one who had gone through a similar experience to our boys and he made the distinction that even though our bodies physiological responses may be triggered and used, its like the difference between your partner telling you you have a beautiful body and a stranger in a dark alley telling you the same thing. The same thing but different emotions are in play.
I find myself at an impasse. I want to wax lyrical, but I can’t without letting in giant spoilers and I am not prepared to do it. It is full of hard core angst and situations that most of us would not even believe exists, but it does, and without being gratuitious about it, Max has captured not only the phsical horror, but the mental, spiritual and emotional horror, when you can’t tell up is up anymore and your whole self-view let alone world-view has been turned up on its head.
I am incredibly glad that this story will be out there and you will all get to read it just as I have because it is worth telling.. Get it.. Fall in love with Stone and Abbas and Benoit like I did.
