Forum: Story Recommendations

I want to read a harem story where the main character isn't bedding any and everyone he comes across. I want to read where it's a small close-nit group against against the world. I really don't care what the setting is but I'd appreciate some fights

Edit: now that I'm reading this it seems like I'm demanding recommendations when in reality I'm only asking for them. I want to say I appreciate every recommendation I have and will receive. Even the ones that don't suit my tastes because you didn't have to take the time out and respond but you did so thank you.

If you listed some of your favorite such stories from SOL, it might help people know what to recommend, or even spark some ideas they wouldn't have had otherwise!

Harem means the women work for the man's pleasure.

If you want a more romantic equal relationship with polygamy, rather than strictly harem, then I recommend "Opus One" by Ryan Sylander. And, on the b-track, perhaps "Sixteen" by me ;)

Mike cropo's of eden and elves...first in a five part series that is incredible although the last book is unfinished. The author safely past away a couple of years ago.

Out of curosity I entered two terms, consensual and harem, in the SOL search page. Egads - 868 returns. I electronically thumbed through a couple of hundred and decided that I was happy to recommend some I had read and liked in the past, that is with one exception.

I rediscovered Clarke's book on the list. I had fully intended to read it back when. Now I have something to curl up with while I wait for the next book in the A Better Man series by GYounger.

I would also add stories by colt45, Lazlong, and The Best of Both Worlds by Dilettante.

A number of the "Magic Ink" series/universe by Uncle Jim might we what you want.

Others have recommended many of aroslav's stories, and those certainly fit.

Broadly speaking, both 'Arlene and Jeff' and 'Three Square Meals' qualify. 'Arlene and Jeff' is a pretty large somewhat close-knit group, but the main character isn't bedding anyone he's not married to (or, depending on your definition of 'bedding', engaged to). 'Three Square Meals' is large - but less large - and it's literally the group against the world, with a lot of fights. The main character does 'bed' other characters, but they're either generally important or it's a much more... transactional... arrangement.

Daze In The Valley (also previously mentioned) is another obvious fit.

The main relationship in Lazlo Zalezac's The Millionaire Next Door would probably fit the bill for you:

It's not a traditional harem as it's a guy with a bi-/lesbian couple and an additional straight girl, but by keeping it small each of the characters has both a very clearly expressed personality and a role within the group.
