The Chronicles of The Starcross Complex [(c)1986]

by Scott Altman

On the weekend of his fifteenth birthday Richie realised for the first time in his life all his secret dreams and longings. Unfortunately his beloved was straight. But that didn't stop him as he grew up from exploring the outer bounderies his nature and the forbidden drives which bound him ever more closely with younger boys.
There was Ian, poor little rich kid, already at puberty bent on tearing the world apart. There was Cricket, at fourteen slow to mature but fast on skis. And there was Bruce, dock orphan who had learned to distrust the touch of all men.
A serious examination of a restless soul who put honesty, love and adventure above all else.
