Now About the Book:
Every gayborhood on Earth hides a closet door to a magic world. Sam is not the first to find it, but when he does it’s in
the early days of a violent revolution for LGBT liberation. The Queen of Witches is building an army, and Sam doesn’t
know what’s more frightening: the fact that his “real” world may be in danger, or that he isn’t sure he wants to save it.
Renegayd shows the yin-yang struggle of global LGBT rights by dipping it in glitter and asking the cost of progress.
How far would you go to reach Global Equality faster?
Renegayd is an unapologetic, gay adventure. The conflict revolves around our main character’s involvement in a rebel organization’s pursuit of equality, as he grapples with the utility of increasingly extreme actions.
Plunge into a fantastic world celebrating the rich history of LGBT rights in over-the-top fun. Renegayd updates the typical gay fiction novel to reflect today’s reality: the progress that’s been won and the work still left undone. This book is not about tolerance or acceptance. It’s about perfect equality, and the cost of each day without it.
For any LGBTQ person who’s been bullied, or beaten, or made to feel inadequate by inequality’s various forms, Renegayd is sweet revenge and incredible fun. Twenty-five chapter illustrations accompany the adventure, and as one reviewer put it, “More books should start with a picture of a
concrete cock.”
Book Summary
Sam DeSalvo is on the rebound, dragged out for a weeknight spree by his best friend who’s determined to help him find a one-night stand. Captivated by a mysterious boy at the bar, Sam finds himself unexplainably transported to fantasy world by a succubus, rescued by a meathead
named Brun-Brun, and standing in front of the Queen of Witches who welcomes him to a hidden world connected to every gayborhood on Earth only accessible to LGBT people.
Brun-Brun warns Sam that the queen is plotting a violent revolution, and that Sam’s “real world” is in danger, but as Sam learns about the queen’s movement—Renegayd—he wonders if a little help speeding his world’s pace to equality is such a bad thing. After an accident during Renegayd’s first
campaign, Sam finds himself on the Scales of Justice, the queen’s closest advisors meant to ensure that every action Renegayd takes results in more good than harm.
Renegayd finds opposition in an organization called “Mission Morality,” and as the two extremes fight, a neutral party emerges calling for equality without violence. Combined with Brun-Brun’s warning about the queen’s true plan, Sam begins noticing a string of disappearances until Brun-
Brun, himself, goes missing. Meanwhile, the first meeting with this peaceful third-party is interrupted by Mission Morality, and Sam’s view of right-and-wrong unravel as the whole world watches the queen’s fabulously unstoppable power.
The Scales of Justice fractures, and Sam leads half of them to escape the queen’s Ivory Tower, stumbling on a dark secret in the process: even on this side of the closet door, opposing viewpoints are secretly imprisoned, including Brun-Brun. Freed prisoners in tow, the group goes into hiding,
trapped in the queen’s world. With the help of their small army and a cunning plan, they make it back to the real world to meet the third-party, forming an alliance across worlds to pursue equality through peaceful resistance.
But even together, a small magical army joined with regular humans don’t stand a chance against neither Renegayd nor Mission Morality. Still, they hatch a plan to use telepaths to come between the two extremes at their climactic encounter. Sam and friends share memories across the
battlefield, hoping that shared perspective will create empathy and stop the violence. But there’s too many, and just before the group is overwhelmed the queen steps in to complete their plan, sacrificing herself to share the life of every person present with someone on the opposite side.

power and a responsibility to continue the fight against hate.
Book Quotes and Excerpts:
“Imagine what it would be like if you’d been born here, to a world where being queer is normal. Where
nobody looks at you different because of who you are. Don’t you think it would have been better?”
What if every action has an equal and opposite reaction?
What if LGBT advancement is equal parts erosion?
What if each organization fighting for equality has one pushing back?
What if light on a disco ball creates as much shadow as sparkle?
“Think of the harm we can avoid for every day we speed up equality. Let’s say the world reaches equality in
five hundred years. Perfect equality. Like here, where no one thinks about gender or sexuality. So much good
will come from speeding that up: victims with no bullies, prisoners with no persecutors, deaths with no
reason. The sadness and pain that comes with it… all avoided.”
Her conviction, the path she described… it was frightening to see an unstable mind and understand it. “Butyou would kill people on the other side of the equation? You feel justified?”
“Not if we don’t have to. But can’t you feel the urgency? We’re racing to save people in torment. Radical good permits radicalism. Just balancing an equation. If we can do that with only addition, we’ll do it.”
“Good and evil,” the queen whispered,
“are a matter of perspective.
The secret’s finding the angle that blocks out the other side.”
“We demand Perfect Equality globally. The LGBT community is through asking for ordination, and
no normalcy—no sameness— will end our struggle. We demand liberation, and we reject that it
comes in stages. Some see a gay, white man on TV and shout ‘Progress!’ Some see right permitting marriage conformity and shout ‘Equality!’ We do not. We see that we’re homeless and hungry, sick and bullied, underpaid, and suicidal. Renegayd is breaking that white picket prison and bringing back the revolution.
