In Honorem is a historical fiction novel written by Erastes and published in 1866. The story is set in the mid-19th century and follows the life of a young man named Orlando Coppersmith, who is a student at Cambridge University. Orlando is a talented artist and is passionate about his work. However, he is also struggling with his sexuality, as he is attracted to men.The novel explores Orlando's journey as he comes to terms with his sexuality and tries to find a place for himself in a society that is not accepting of homosexuality. Along the way, he meets a number of other characters, including his friend Jonty, who is also struggling with his own sexuality, and a wealthy benefactor named Lord Alexander Latham.As Orlando navigates his way through his studies and his personal life, he finds himself drawn into a web of intrigue and scandal that threatens to destroy everything he has worked for. With the help of his friends and allies, Orlando must fight to protect his reputation and his future, while also staying true to himself and his beliefs.In Honorem is a powerful and moving novel that explores themes of love, sexuality, and identity in a time when these issues were not widely understood or accepted. Erastes' writing is rich and evocative, bringing to life the world of Cambridge University and the struggles of its students in a way that is both engaging and thought-provoking.
