~ Nauti Boy (Berkley Sensation)

Expected More
Lora Leigh is one of my favorite romantica authors. However, I was NOT pleased with this book. When first reading the excerpt on Leigh's Web site, I was really impatient to get my hands on NAUTI BOY! It looked like another naughty (pun intended) and forbidden love story with promising passion and loads of sex scenes!! Unfortunately, it didn't live up to its name!! So disappointing. I've read more of my share of Leigh's books, including the 1st two books in the Men of August series. Yet this one really does not compare to the August brothers. Sex scenes are pretty tame and lame. Of course, they're graphic, but not original--or titillating!!! There's no provocative dialogue either. Just the usual F and C words, but nothing that really turned me on. Shame! I know this book could have been so much HOTTER! The main characters are not very interesting and the storyline less than engaging. As one who is very familiar with her work, I've come to expect more from Leigh. Although I have 4 more...


Nauti Boy (Berkley Sensation)


Marine Rowdy Mackay has returned home to Kentucky-and to the girl he left behind: Kelly Benton. But before they can engage in the erotic games that have earned him his Nauti boy reputation, he must fight to save her from the deadly threats of a stranger.

^ Enslaved

An Erotic Tale of Blackmail & BDSM
I don't know why it's taken me so long to discover Claire Thompson's writing, but that is definitely an error on my part. ENSLAVED was....amazing! I loved it. There are certain books that just work for me on many levels, and this was one of them.

I'm a fan of blackmail/non-con themes (in fiction only, of course!), and ENSLAVED hit all the right buttons. The story begins as Sam Ryker, the owner of a software company, discovers that his employee, Rae, has been stealing money from him - a huge sum of money. So he confronts her about it and offers her a deal: spend a month in his dungeon as his sex slave or go to prison for embezzlement. Rae is terrified at what Sam might do to her, but certainly a month in his dungeon is better than spending years in prison.

Sam and Rae have a history together that goes beyond boss and employee. They shared one hot night of sex, and Rae got her first taste of BDSM. Even though she loved it, afterwards she felt embarrassed and...

>> Daddy Long Stroke (Zane Presents)

Jaw Dropping Glimpse of a Gigolo
Alexander Maples AKA Alley Cat and AKA Daddy Long Stroke is a sex addict. Working with an unusually large tool (LOL) and possessing extraordinary oral skills, Daddy Long Stroke is a beast in the bedroom.

Unfortunately, he exhibits misogynistic tendencies and is repulsed when a female shows any sign of emotional dependency. Extending tenderness is out of the question for him. Financially secure, he is a con man, a gigolo who needlessly swindles women out of their assets. For Alley Cat, defrauding women is recreation...a fun sport.

There is something to be said about the dozens and dozens of women all over the country who initially meet him online, and then want to sample his goods. He never promises anything more than his deep stroke, and yet his sex partners foolishly pursue him, blowing up his phone, texting him, begging to spend time with them...wanting more than he is willing or capable of giving.

This novel should be a wake up call to any woman...

Where are the characters I met in the first book?
The ending of the first book should have been a clue not to bother with the second book.

- WARNING SPOILERS -

Heroine comes back from 6 weeks vacation from Hawaii with her new gay best friend. She will use him to make Jagger jealous and win him back. But wait, she doesn't want him, because he hurt her. She keeps telling him to get lost when he texts or calls her. She even threw him out of her apartment when he came by to talk. But, she still gonna go to the party that his friend is trowing, to seduce and get Jagger back. WTF?!?!?!?

Willow is all of a sudden this tuff chick. F@q this and f@q that, what the f@q and who's the f@q is all you hear coming out of her mouth (aside from Jagger's 4 piercings). Excuse me, but just because she learned how to squeeze 20 f@qs in a five word sentence doesn't make her tuff!!

So, her plan goes up in smokes because Jagger doesn't get jealous, but at the end of the night they end up getting back together...

This is the story of MJ and Maddie; we learn thru past/present story telling (which I love) that they'd been best friends all their life and decided to take their friendship further one summer...until Maddie runs off breaking MJ's heart in the process!!!
MJ is my lil Puma cub and I'd comfort his broken heart on my head on chesticles anyday! When I found out just how badly she broke MJ's heart I asked Kelli to go back and kill Maddie off! I hated her instantly. Kelli told me "keep reading" so I did, and then I learned it wasn't Maddie's choice to leave; she was forced to leave because she knew too much. I felt bad for her after that and maybe a little guilty that I asked to have her stoned and be-headed. At times thru the story I still wanted to shake her for being so stubborn and dead set against following her heart and rekindling her relationship with MJ (she does have valid reasons for her hesitation) because you could literally feel the feelings they still have for each other...

~ Yes, Master

YES, MASTER~
Stark Pleasure

The real world awaits Alice Barlow and her roommate. Their college days are done, so the first item on the agenda is getting a job in order to pay for their new apartment.

Work is something Tristan Stark takes very seriously, although the same can be said for his playtime as well.

Modeling nude is the last thing Alice could ever have imagined doing, yet it turns out to be nothing compared to the time she spends with Tristan. This is the man, with his very explicit desires and demands that Alice wants with a passion so intense she is more than willing to leave her innocence behind.

When it is right, everything falls into place, much like Alice's introduction into the world of BDSM.

^ The Denim Dom (Siren Publishing Sensations)

Second only to "The Reluctant Dom"
I didn't think anything would every come close to Ms. Dalton's "The Reluctant Dom", but this book does. I loved her introduction to this book...describing how she was into the BDSM lifestyle (Not that her fans hadn't already figured it out, but it was refreshing to read her words about it).

As all of her books are, it was very well written. But probably my favorite thing about this book was reading about all the past characters from "The Recluctant Dom", etc. (I don't know anybody who read that book, who wasn't in tears at some point times while reading it. I have one friend who was reading it on a plane & had so many tears flowing that the flight attendant stopped and asked if she was okay).

Even if you are not a BDSM fan, you will love this book.

Good for Omaha
This version had at least one more episode in the earliest part than I remember from my earlier volumes. I gave them away to an Omaha admirer. The covers are more lurid than those of my earlier volumes, and while I like both I kind of miss the drama of the earlier covers. It's good to see Omaha so available, and I look forward to seeing the conclusion of the series. There is education in life to be had from reading Omaha.

* Head Bangers: An APF Sexcapade (Strebor Quickiez)

Welcome back the QUEEN of erotica!!!!
Was it me or did this book slip under the radar? Zane hasn't published a book in quite a while so when I saw this one I was like, "huh?" Once I got over the shock of seeing this book, I took it up to the counter and said, "one please". Giddy is the word I would use as I waited for my break so I could start reading this book. Would Zane still have "it"? Would we still want to read "it"? Did this book make me want "it"? Ummmm... yes, hell yes, and hell-to-the-yes!!

`Head Bangers' is packed with everything that makes a Zane book a Zane book! Sex, laugh out loudness, more sex, ridiculous drama, more and more sex, and sexy sexyness!

* Taken (Give & Take)

Oh, come on.
First off, let me say this: If you buy this book expecting a comparible reading experience to Fifty Shades Trilogy Bundle: Fifty Shades of Grey; Fifty Shades Darker; Fifty Shades Freed or Bared to You: A Crossfire Novel, as other reviewers have suggested, you will be disappointed. Other than the fact that the heros in these books are good-looking billionaires who are fairly obsessed with the heroine, the stories are not alike in any way.

Now, that being said, this story is written in 2nd Person point of view. Honestly, I had to look up what that even meant because I had not ever read a book in this perspective before. Basically, it's told from the heroine's point of view as she...

>>> Marly's Choice

I tried to be Fair.....(spoiler alert!)
But I just don't LIKE this series and I won't be reading any further. I didn't even FINISH this book. The sex was NUCLEAR in hotness, but the storyline made it nasty, dirty, and downright tawdry. I couldn't get into it.

I've got nothing against menage or erotica (hello? I BOUGHT the book right?) but the "If you love me you'll do my brothers and me too" and the "NEVER TELL ME NO! I'll BRUTALLY RAPE YOU if you do!!!" Stuff is just WRONG WRONG WRONG.

And she finally comes to the point where sharing herself with all three is HOT and not that disturbing and what does the author do? "If you LOVE ME you'll have sex with this WOMAN"

At that point I was so DONE. And these boys had some seriously serious psychological problems. They were brutally raped as children by their dad and FORCED TO LIKE IT. Instead of dealing with the trauma of abuse? They allow that trauma to be the reasoning behind their boorish, mean, evil, and downright ILLEGAL behavior towards...

* Bilgewater (Abacus Books)

Wonderfully written, unique story
Yes, this is one of the best & brainiest children's/young adult's books out there. The main characters are misfits stranded amongst "normality" in a boarding school... anyone who has been less than incredibly perfect and popular can relate to the heroine. Gardam has created very unusual, intelligent and deep characters... and she writes with compassion and skill. What begins as a story full of painful non-interaction and isolation moves toward riveting romance and self-discovery and bravery, unveiling the plot with an almost gothic mood. Complex, atmospheric, smart and strong; this is for mature young-readers and for adults who remember their own coming-of-age pangs. One of my most memorable surprise discoveries.

~ Philosophy in the Boudoir: Or, The Immoral Mentors (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition)

Oh, but there's so much more!
I thought Incest was really well written (much like Lolita, where the content is filthy but you can't help but fall in love with the writer for how gifted he is with language), so I checked this one out next. Initially, Philosophy in the Boudoir came off as porn for the thinking man and nothing more - and really, everything has its place - but about halfway into the book there appeared some interesting philosophy that really completes some of what the Marquis got into with Incest. He further develops arguments on morality here, and if you're a Camus fan, a good deal of these arguments are actually pretty compatible with Camus, too. If you can get past (or enjoy?) all the anal sex bits, this is actually some pretty smart philosophy with what appears to be Marquis de Sade's characters debating either side of his own arguments.

* The Reluctant Dom (Siren Publishing Menage and More)

stock up on kleenex!!!
Quick recap: Kaden and Leah are married almost 20 years. Kaden finds out he is dying of cancer and asks his lifelong best friend Seth to move in and gradually step in as not only an addition to their family but an eventual replacement for him when he's gone. Seth reluctantly agrees because he can never say no to Kade. However, he didn't know the d/s lifestyle Kade and Leah were living. Not because they get-off on pain and dominance, but because Leah had a horrendously abusive upbringing and in order to keep from hurting herself so she could feel her emotions, Kade had to take care of that part for her in a safe environment so she could cope and feel safe and secure. (of course this all goes WAY deeper than that...) Seth has a difficult time not only coping with Kaden's illness but his growing feelings for Leah and also becoming the Master and partner he knows he needs to be in time to take care of Leah.

FOR THE LOVE OF ALL HOLY!!!! HONOR AND OBEY BLEW ME AWAY. I have to say among the Honor Series this book is the best by far. GOOD JOB Teresa Mummert. William's character just turn Darker and Manipulative in so many levels. Emma is so young and naive and she has no idea what she got herself into. Aunt Judy's death is really suspicious, I bet you know who killed her. The car accident is horrible and William's Memory loss was suspicious for me in any ways. I think he's faking it. I wanna smack Emma's head though, she left William on his own after coming home from the hospital without memory. She claims to love him but leave him when he really needed her the most. Whether the memory loss is real or not, that just not how you show your love to someone no matter how upset she is over the lies. But I still love that this book is a romance with amazingly steamy sex scenes and a splash of suspense and thriller. It's my kind of book. Above all else I love this book and I cant wait...

~ Exit to Eden

Exit to Eden vs. Fifty Shades of Grey
Exit to Eden has a serious tone, even a dark one - but it's an incredible, mind-blowing exploration of not only the erotica but of the psychology of B&D.

I mostly agree with njbookworm's review of Exit to Eden from 2001, with only a couple of exceptions. Note that Exit to Eden and the Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy are not about Sadomasochism (S&M) - they're about Bondage & Domination (B&D). BIG difference. Look up "Bondage & Domination" in Wikipedia. An oversimplification of the difference is in the degree of pain inflicted/received, and the underlying mindsets of the Sadist/Masochist vs. the Dominator/Submissive.

I especially agree with njbookworm that if you have not read any of Anne Rice/Rampling's books, don't start with this one. I personally prefer her Mayfair Witches books to the Vampire LeStat ones.

I also disagree with njbookworm's comment that Anne's descriptions of the day-to-day workings of the Island and Lisa's responsibilities thereto...

I read it giving a new author and her story the benefit of the doubt and honestly trying not to compare it to any books this was tagged similar to. Throughout the story I was confused, because various details of the h, her home, college life and the same with the H didn't really make any sense to me. Both characters are hard to like or even empathize with. Right from the beginning, we find out the h, Emma, just turned 21 and has lived with her absent, drunk, and slutty Aunt since Emma moved to Florida from Michigan right before high school graduation. Intelligent Emma hates college and has no friends in the 4 years she's been there because "... people...

>>> Only Pleasure

Too Bad- So Sad!
I've been a big fan of Lora Leigh's books but this is not one of her best. The sex is HOT but the plot needs work. He says she's a princess but treats her like a whore. Catches her as she's leaving places and then leaves right after the sex. Doesn't invite her to any events with his friends & his friends notice and wonder about it. I would've told him to shove it no matter how hot the sex was. Very disappointed.

> His Purrfect Mate

Clear Winner
Shannon is a damsel in distress. After being accosted in a parking lot by several werewolves, who can smell that she is part puma, she flees to hide at the top of a tree. The threats keep coming until Anton, the next Alpha of the tribe comes to her rescue.

Ms. Dohner has spun a Romeo and Juliet style story where the two species are at war, the pumas and the wolves. Anton is like the hunky Alpha heroes that this author has a knack for writing but Shannon isn't a simpering female. She's a bold, if skittish, heroine who is absolutely a complete match for Anton. Their bantering is laugh out loud funny, even though it does get campy from time to time. But the sex is scorching hot and I instantly started rooting for the adorable couple to get together.

I do feel the need to warn about the rape scene. The warnings the publisher tagged this book with of a near rape scene is absolutely no exaggeration. Since this is a romance novel, you can be sure Anton comes riding in...

* Simply Scandalous (House of Pleasure)

Simply Scandalous
Simply Scandalous is the deliciously sexy final installment of Kate Pearce's House of Pleasure series. An intriguing mystery and a secondary romance make this novel a little different from the other books in the series. The sex scenes are still smoking hot and longtime fans of the series will be delighted with the wrap up of all the various storylines.

Unbeknownst to his family and friends, Richard Ross spent his years in France working as a spy for England. Now retired and back in England, he is still mourning the death of his lover, Violet. When a former colleague of his draws Richard back into the spy game, he comes face to face with a ghost from his past.

Violet LeNy is a former spy who broke Richard's heart when she was forced to fake her own death. Fleeing from France, she and her twin brother Jack are working to reclaim their estates and begin a new life in England. Desperate to save herself and her brother, Violet will go to any lengths to regain...

~ Sarah's Seduction (Men of August, Book 2)

Not Lora Leigh's best, but not atrocious either
OK, Men of August isn't as good as the Breeds books, but it's still pretty hot. Those who like Lora Leigh's other erotica will probably like this as well.

It's true that there is a lot of stupidity in the plotting of this book (and the other August books). Yeah, it's dumb that the brothers have threesomes to "heal" and I didn't really care for all the psychobabble explanations.

But that didn't make it any less erotic that they did like to have threesomes. And that's the point of the book - Brock and Sarah are in love, but Sarah is having a lot of difficulty coming to terms with the fact that if she is going to be with Brock, she will also have to be with the other brothers.

And that, not the whole sexual healing bit, was probably the most annoying thing - how many women would have a hard time with the idea of being loved by three incredibly hot guys? The August men have the unique ability to find the most prudish, unaccepting women out there. So...

>>> The Wild Ones (A Wild Ones Novel)

Good God - What A COVER!
I have tried other M. Leighton books, but this is the first one that I really liked. It was romantic without being cheesy, sensual without being sleazy and it was about TRUE LOVE which is always delightful to read about.

In a nutshell, Cami is dating the safe guy her rich father approves of but is passionate about the guy that works in her barn. Not wanting to go against her father's wishes, Cami takes her time agonizing over her desire for Trick and her loyalty to Brent. Finally, she can take it no more and chooses Trick and is deliriously happy until "the other shoe drops". Family history has a secret that tears them apart and tests their love for each other.

I am a definite fan of alternating points of views, so I loved it in this story. I love knowing what each character is really feeling and being "in the know" over their heartaches and jealousies, true love or imaginary. I also really like reading a book from a guy's POV. Sometimes it isn't...

* Kushiel's Scion (Kushiel's Legacy)

Kushiel's Line throws as true as Kushiel's Dart
After the hideous disappointment of "Banewreaker", I was on pins and needles regarding Carey's return to Terre D'Ange in "Kushiel's Scion." Would the sexy, dark, original voice that had given us Phedre, Joscelin, Hyacinthe, and Melisande be replaced by the boring tediousness of the "Sundering" series? I just knew it would kill me to see that happen to these beloved characters. Furthermore, what to make of the fact that the next three books would not be narrated by that most cunning of linguists? Would Terre D'Ange without Phedre be whipped cream without the cherry?

Thank Elua, all my fears were unfounded. "Scion", while taking the Kushiel's Legacy series in a new direction, is a welcome and worthy addition, and Imriel is an excellent and insightful new narrator. His voice is, naturally, different from Phedre's, but the beautiful, rich language is the same. Carey has done a great job making the transition from anguissette to prince.

Imriel's story is also very...

> Hot for the Holidays

hot in some places
I bought this anthology for Lora Leigh and Angela Knight. Both stories were very satisfying. In Lora leigh's addition we are given Hawke and Jessica's story. It takes place about a year after Jessica was caught betraying the Breeds. For such a short story, I felt like I was still given another great slice of life with the Breeds. Its christmas time and Hawke has been waiting long enough for suspicions and anger against Jessica to die down. He is ready to claim his mate. Hawke was very romantic for a wolf under the mating heat. At first I thought that Lora Leigh was making the stories more tame or taking away from the mating heat but then I remembered that the breeds have gotten better with the hormones and medicines they've created to deal with the mating heat. The sex was still spicy Leigh style and the plot concerned the council and the drug they've created that hides their scents. I am fascinated by how this author is going through the plot and giving us a great story line...

* Forbidden Fruit

4.5 stars. Wow! Fresh, different, sensual, erotic.
REVIEWER'S OPINION:
Well done erotic scenes with good stories. There were two couples in the story. One couple was a female professor and her student - a forbidden relationship, yet they couldn't stay away from each other. I was melting with the way they used food. The tasting and feeling of food was sensual and sexual. A second couple involved a woman who needed to be commanded and taken over. Gideon did that. He was mysterious and secretive. There was almost no talk early in their relationship. For their first encounter, he saw her, grabbed her hand, and took her into a janitor's closet without a word before or after. He told her what, where and when to do things. They had sex in public places with a risk of being seen. Their relationship was also well done. I had trouble deciding between 4 or 5 stars for Amazon. I rounded up to 5 since I would definitely recommend buying it, for someone looking for good erotic scenes. Note for some readers: there is one scene...

* Masterpieces of Victorian Erotica

A virtual buffet of Victorian Erotica for the novice .....
Although I am not much of a fan of anthologies, since the short excerpts are frustrating, this collection of some great Victorian erotica was fun to read .....

There are 19 books excerpted here with most of the stories running from five to twelve pages, and the book weighs in at 319 pages ... I have read some of the full books in this volume but there were still a couple that I had not seen before.

Most certainly during the Victorian era the sex and erotica was varied, and many of today's taboo's were unknown to a people that had little to occupy their minds and bodies other than enjoy the pleasures of the outdoors, gardens, food and last but not least their libidos. Although erotic spanking and bondage was known to the Victorians we see very little of the violent BDSM in their literature. This is and important distinction since it makes it easy for a 'normal' reader to vicariouosly enjoy the wonderfull mind painting the authors detail.

The book lost...

* Man Swappers: A Novel

Sharing Sisters
Keeping it in the family is taken out of proportion in Man Swappers by Cairo. Paris, Porsha, and Persia are sisters who share the same sexual curiosity, adventure, and spontaneous attitude. These sisters share everything including their men. When a man dates one sister, he has to date them all and there is no exception to the rule.

When two of the sisters break the rule, a rivalry begins and changes the dynamics of the sisters relationship. The story takes a turn and the sisters will never be the same. Paris, Porsha, and Persia become different women and realize that sharing is not everything.

Man Swappers is about family, betrayal, and secrets. The author created a steamy, entertaining and consistent storyline that kept me interested. Having been disappointed by the author's previous books, I must say he has finally written a book I enjoyed. The sexual content was not over the top and was actually believable. I recommend Man Swappers to others.

^ Kushiel's Mercy

Heart-wrenching, tortuous, tragic - Kushiel have Mercy!
As the second - and please Elua, not final - cycle of the Kushiel's Legacy series comes to a close, the central question most fans will be asking is, Will Imriel and Sidonie live happily ever after? Rest assured, Carey gives us plenty of these two star-crossed lovers (complete with requisite scorching hot bedroom scenes - whee!). But she's not content with just giving us their love story, oh no. She's not even content with giving us another of Imriel's soul-seaching, personal growth quests. In "Kushiel's Mercy," the pattern more closely resembles that of Phedre's trilogy, as Imriel finally gets his chance to save the world, and the woman he loves, from evil magic and the threat of war.

Part of the joy in this book comes from the way Carey skillfully brings everything full circle. In the past, Melisande Shahrizai has been the greatest threat to Terre d'Ange and the one impediment to Imriel and Sidonie's happiness; now she is the realm's, and the princess's, only hope for...

^ Emmanuelle

Stunning imagery.
While some might find the frankness of the book's text shocking, Emmanuelle Arsan's infamous bestseller is rich in imagery and detail which still resonates brightly so many years after its initial publication.

The story concerns a young Parisian who flies to Bangkok to join her diplomat husband. In a marriage which in the strictest sense might be termed "open," Emmanuelle struggles to conform to what she believes are her husband's wishes. She becomes entranced by an older man named Mario, whom she believes can teach her the "Secrets of Eros," and help her to become what she terms a "real woman." The real star of the book, however, is not the story, but the period philosophy which is so oft found throughout the book, and especially in the chapter "The Law."

Love "scenes" are frequent, but are told with such subtle beauty and grace, that they never become unpleasant or gratuitous. "Emmanuelle" is without a doubt a...

~ Ultra-Gash Inferno

Maruo's uncompromising way of illustrating is unique!
Suehiro Maruo's Ultra-Gash Inferno is a fantastic piece of art, unique both in Japan and in the west.

There is no other artist illustrating aberration of erotic and violent human fantasy in a way as direct and uncompromising as he does: love making at the cemetery amidst vermin and rotten fruit, love making in the canalization, love making with grandmother, love making of lovers with their arms being cut off and their eyes being poked out or having group sex with Buddhist monks. Just as grotesque as these various situations is the way the heroes in Maruo's stories live, decide and act: there is a boy who grows up in canalization, a boy who kills his parents, because they laugh at him and he does not know why, a girl who inserts the eye of a bird into her vagina, eats excrements with her two lovers and loves licking banisters, a boy who can sleep only after having put his genital between his grandmother's dental prosthesis, a girl who orally satisfies her leprous father, and a woman...

Poor Title, Awesome Book
I often laugh at all those articles in men's and women's fad magazines that promise to reveal new "sexual secrets". You know which ones I mean . . .

Geared towards couples who have their obligatory sex two times a week for 30 minutes and need new, neat little sound-bite ideas to keep things from getting boring. All heavy on fancy shtick and paint-by-number techniques, light on any real depth or substance.

And so . . . I write this review to promise readers that, despite the poor choice of main title, this exceptional tome is not like that at all.

^ The Pearl

A Classic
Other than the 18th Century Fanny Hill, The Pearl is the earliest genuine Victorian erotic classic. In tone, style and subject matter, it is undoubedtly the Real McCoy of the genre.

As they say, there is something for everyone, and much that may not be of interest. The writing is varied...reflecting the different contributors, but uniformly well done. Often funny, frequently raunchy, mostly playful, The Pearl should be able to offer something you like if you have an interest in Victorian erotica.

The text follows the magazine format from which it was taken, so that the stories are arranged in installments that pick up and resume after other segments. This can be distracting if you particularly want to follow one thread, but not difficult once you get used to it. The "plots" are not significant, in any event. Great scenes of initiation into sex, voyeurism, and other delights. Interestingly, women seem to like this book (at least parts of it) which is not a given with its...

^ The Complete Marquis de Sade, Vol. 1

A most faithless translation!
It seems to me that John Yankowski must hate reading the real Sade, and wants to make sure everyone thinks it's the most boring work imaginable.

I've read the Grove Press translations of Sade's works, and his "Complete Marquis de Sade by John Yankowski" bears no similarities whatsoever to a quality translation. Under the guise of making the books easier to read, Mr. Yankowski simply removed all detail, depth of argument and, amazingly, most of the actual occurrences from the works. They are most heavily edited, and to awful effect. Whole chapters and events are skipped without a blink, and the rest are badly paraphrased. And he most certainly and thoroughly erases all sense of any "lubricity".

So, if you like your evil fiction to have a breath of life to it, stay away from this version. I'm asking Amazon for my money back on this book and lodging a complaint about its name. The last thing it is is complete!
