True Love...

I have enjoyed the Heroes of Olympus up until I started reading House of Hades. One of the characters has turned out to be gay and have a crush on another male character. But what saddens me even more is the portrayal of love as something selfish and changeable. True love, as we see in Christ, is all about what is best for the other person, about sacrifice, and about the salvation of their soul. That is why whenever there is talk about homosexual relationships it saddens me because it is about okaying lusts, that is the hallmark of what the world views love as, lust.  I myself am a fan of fantasy and sci fi and a few of the series that I would recommend would be Bryan Davis's Dragons in our Midst and Dragons of Starlight; Donita K Paul's Dragon Keeper Chronicles; Meriol Trevor Letzenstein Chronicles for younger kids; and Ross Lawhead's Ancient Earth series for adults.
