This review is from: Dear Raven and Joshua: Questions and Answers About Master/Slave Relationships (Paperback)
"Ask Raven and Joshua" is one of the most honest, realistic, and useful works on consensual Mastery/slavery that i've read. Based on their own experience, rather than theories or fantasies, it also draws on the experience of their many friends and acquaintances in the M/s scene. It also shows their willingness to do the hard thinking and problem solving that this challenging relationship needs if it is to succeed.
The Q&A format enables them to cover an extraordinary range of concerns (an index would have helped). The book is consistently readable and credible, as down to earth as the working farm the authors live on. What comes across is the everyday life together of a complicated man and his devoted servant, lover, and helpmate, not a fantasy scenario that is only trotted out at leather events or on weekends. Their relationship is a work in progress guided by love, humility (on both sides), honor, and a sense of humor.
Kudos to both Raven and Joshua, and thanks for sharing so much of their lives with readers.
