This review is from: Master/Slave: 30 Spanking Tales from the Top & 30 Stinging Tales from the Bottom (Mass Market Paperback)

Needless to say, I was not disappointed. In the genre of BDSM there are some very extreemly fantastical tales out there. This is not one of them. Having a selection of 60 tales to chose from, pick your favorite. However you should be warned that this book has a specific theme, that is to say, the Tops are all male and the bottoms are all female. If that is not to your taste, this is not worth spending the money on. If you're more into vanilla erotica, why are you even reading this? Violence is the theme of this anthology and shocking as it may be to new comers to the genre, the women bottoms in these stories love it.
This collection of anthology is the best I have found so far. The narratives actually have literary style which is not always the case in most eroticas. This is one of those books that you'll either love or hate. In my case, it was one of the best books I bought in the genre to date.

This review is from: Master/Slave: 30 Spanking Tales from the Top & 30 Stinging Tales from the Bottom (Mass Market Paperback)

I've read erotica before but I'm pretty new to BDSM erotica. To tell you the truth the stories I've read in the past usually scared me to bits that I've shied away from them. I usually found those stories too far fetched and just too much for my tastes. But the stories in Master/Slave made me give this genre another chance.

I got this book as a gift and I must say it is one of the best erotica anothologies I've ever read. The short stories here are very hot and sexy but at the same time love and romance are hinted at. Some are short and sweet and others run far longer. This is what makes it a great anthology. It's the variety. You get a little bit of everything.

I also liked the fact that each author wrote a little blurb right before the story to give a little insight of why they wrote it and what inspired them. M.T. Morley did a great job of compiling the right kind of stories into this compilation.

For those just taking a peek into BDSM erotica I think this is the book to start with. When reading either side of the book you can definitely get a feel for the characters desires and needs. I have many favorites in this book so in short I believe this is a must read.

This review is from: Master/Slave: 30 Spanking Tales from the Top & 30 Stinging Tales from the Bottom (Mass Market Paperback)

To be honest the stories within this book are very basic, they dont give much detail, nor is there anything other than a bit of spanking, and light bondage described.

Maybe i've become more hardcore but, in all honesty the stories to me were just very boring and vanilla. If your just buying it to get the free super saver shipping then it might be worth your time but there are plenty of other books that are in many ways worth your money more than this one....
