Space Raptor Butt Invasion Kindle Edition

On the surface, Space Raptor Butt Invasion may appear to be just another exploitation title in a turgid sea of bizarre erotica, but don't let that fool you. Dr. Tingle is to man/dinosaur butt loving what Romero is to zombies. He takes his chosen medium and transforms it into a metaphor for astute social commentary. Beneath the veneer of entertainment, and his stories are highly entertaining, Dr. Tingle asks us to consider deeper questions -- like who we really are and what it means to love.In Space Raptor Butt Invasion, when budget cuts force the recall of his companion Pike to earth, astronaut Lance is left to supervise the terraforming station on Zorbus alone. Except, he discovers, he's not alone.There's a slow building, ominous tension around this unknown other -- who is he, how did he get here, what does he want?When the stranger finally shows up at the airlock of the terraforming station, Lance's curiosity and loneliness overcome his suspicion. He admits the space-suited figure and discovers his companion is not a man at all, but a space raptor on a mission akin to Lance's own.Together in isolation from their home worlds and their own kind, Lance and Orion discover their similarities are greater than their differences, and that love between a man and a raptor is real.Space Raptor Butt Invasion asks us to consider who we would be, and who we would love, if we were free of social judgment, and whether we can ever truly be free when we carry that judgment in ourselves. Even in the depths of space, Lance's feelings for Orion are conflicted and complicated by the mores of distant human society. In one poignant and vulnerable moment, Lance asks Orion: “I mean, it’s not gay if it’s a dude raptor and a dude human, right?”Some people say Chuck Tingle's Hugo Award nomination for this story is a tasteless joke undermining the sanctity of science fiction -- and it may have begun that way. But to those people I would say, the joke's on them that played it. Chuck Tingle's Space Raptor Butt Invasion is a exploration of homophobia and identity that evokes comparison with Barry Longyear's treatment of xenophobia in his classic novella Enemy Mine.Tingle's work embodies the soul of speculative fiction; through the vehicle of forbidden tales of man/dinosaur love (and what could be more speculative than that?) Dr. Chuck Tingle examines what it means to be human.

It's a small wonder why this amazing story was nominated. It explores the deeply convoluted aspects of love between human and and another sentient species of unexpected origin. The title does not do the text justice, as Tingle pulls off a difficult subject with style and aplomb, taking his place with ease among the greatest of sci-fi authors.Must read!

My deepest regret is that I couldn't give this book ten stars. I read this aloud to friends and we can't remember the last time we felt so much joy. Thank you, Mr. Tingle, for thawing our cold, dead hearts.

"You'll take this dino-D and youre gonna like it!" Veeeery nice 🤣Give this one a read if you're in the mood for some sexual, homoerotic satire.

Not only does Dr. Tingle paint a vivid picture of the future colonization of faraway moons and planets, he also really drives home the message that having sex with a dinosaur would be a lot of fun.

A tender bond millions of years in the making could not have not been captured more perfectly. I got some very good laughs from reading this, and the reactions from my friends from reading this were priceless. Worth the three bucks!

What's not to love about gay space raptors?!

The best butt invasion there is.

At first i was a little hesitant with Space Raptor Butt Invasion, but as the story progressed i really started to understand the characters to such a deep extent, and after Orion called his orgasm his Jurassic Load, well.... I knew i was keeping this book for life.
