Customer Reviews

Good mix of anthologies for the genre

The book is a good blend of short stories on this literary segment branded as porn or erotica. The authors chosen for the book show they are interested in writing on the subjects. Although the subject matter of the stories was not always to my liking or tastes, it is a worthwhile book in my opinion.

Off-beat and eclectic

I can't say I liked all of the stories in this book, but most were fun and some were rather odd-ball. The cover is funny. A good read for the beach or the airport.

A Weird and Wild Book

I love the cover. I love the preface, wherein Larry McCaffery says he found Hemmingson, the editor, after an alien abduction, and this whole book is written by kinky alien life forms. There's a lot of weird and quirky stories in here. This is probably one of the best "erotica" anthologies I've come across in along time, as all the stories take a fresh look at the form.Highly recommended.
