3.0 out of 5 stars For fanciers of spiced-up Harlequin paperbacks only, October 17, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Careless Passion: Two Classics of Erotic Literature in One Volume (Victorian erotic classics) (Paperback)
In calling this "a classic in the super-heated tradition of Marcus Van Heller", the editor does Mr. Van Heller an injustice. Although the book has its moments, some 70% of the contents is devoted to long-winded dialogue and descriptions, all with little or no erotic content. If mr. Anonymous had deleted half of the text and spent the room thus created to fully developing the erotica-part, this book would really have been a hot little number.

5.0 out of 5 stars You'll cuddle up and devour this book ... a MUST HAVE, October 17, 2000

This review is from: Careless Passion: Two Classics of Erotic Literature in One Volume (Victorian erotic classics) (Paperback)
There are two GREAT and exceptionally erotic stories in this volume ...

The first `Captured' deals with Maya a young girl on the US West coast who is captured by two ner do wells and then sold to Etheus the hooded leader of a hidden and secret sex cult. Dr Eustus is able to keep her on the verge while Maya certainly is taken thru the `paces'. In other capture and discipline books this is where it usually would end but this book actually has a story and Maya is driven home since the cult leader knows that once she has tasted the forbidden fruit shell be back for more. This is a modern story of `O' but definitely two cuts above the classic .... Eroticism at its best

The second book `Dangerous Affairs' is a post WW II book in England and deals with Francia a gang leader on the streets of London dealing with drugs and sex, Roger Hartnell a down and out ex air force pilot and Dora a middle class young lady that is working to try to make ends meet.

There are two award winning scenes that will burn INTO your mind FOREVER. The first scene of how Roger meets Dora in a bar is so real that I actually thought I was there! In a second scene Francie and Hilda, one of his cohorts, make a drug delivery to Lady Anne one of the modern society ladies in London. Francie however wants more than just the money from Lady Anne and the resulting scene is absolutely astounding....

Once in her bedroom after having refused Francies suggestion the book describes Lady Annes turmoil ... `I can't do it. I can't do it! She told herself fiercely. But the package in Francie's hands and the craving in her body changed the can't to `must'. She dug her nails into her palms and then looked up at Francie' .....

This is a MUST HAVE for your erotic library .. buy it cause this on WILL go out of print!
