Astra and Flondrix represents a departure in the field of fantasy fiction: an erotic Tolkien. Seamus Cullen, using a humor ranging from the gentle to the ribald, has joined past mythology to a post-atomic age. In doing so, he has created a magical world for adults as unique as the one Richard Adams created for children in Watership Down.

The book begins `many years from now, ` when, in a rude new world built in the atomized ashes of the old, a son is born to Barlocks, the Dark King - a son part mortal and part elf. This son, Flondrix, the product of Barlocks` unheard-of sexual transgressions with an Elvan princess, sets out on a gargantuan quest for both a past and a future, wending his way through neo-medieval kingdoms of dwarves, people, and elves. What the naive Flondrix never realizes is that he holds the future of the world between his thighs.

The book`s own special apocalypse is reached in the confrontation between the distorted skills of the scientist-sorcerer Kranz and the innocent sensuality of Flondrix and Astra, the daughter of the Elvan King. The result: a fourth world war - of magic.
