I am a big fan of Sharon Green's work, and found this series one of her best. Often, my non-feminist friends can't start the series with Book 1 because it deals with a "savage" life from a so-called "male" perspective -- take what you want, fight to keep it, get rid of it when it's no longer convenient/useful. While the sex is great, there is more to Ms. Green's writing than erotica. Nowhere else have I seen a true "education" of thoughts and ideas within a character primarily categorized as a "Xena"-wannabe or a "Gor"-knockoff. Ms. Green deals with profound issues involving comfort vs. fighting for ideals, as well as moralist issues such as being willing to sacrifice oneself for a noble cause. This book is a real "kepper", and as soon as I can get a clean copy, I will be replacing it in my library.

Part of the Jalav series. Jalav is a warrior queen like Xena on TV, that periodically finds herself captured and forced to be a sex slave

The above review fails to mention that Jalav's tribe does to men what Goreans do to women. Battle of the sexes with lots of steamy bondage. They don't write 'em like this any more. If you like Fantasy B&D erotica, try to find these books.
