Welcome to Lachmuirghan, where fantasies come true. You may have trouble finding Lachmuirghan on a map. Thats because it exists only in our imaginations. Hidden in this secret valley, Lachmuirghan can be whatever you want it to be. Imagine a sheltered valley and loch somewhere in the west of Scotland. At the head of the valley is an ancient circle of standing stones; at the lower end stands a ruined castle overlooking the bustling village center. As you explore, suddenly you notice things are not quite as they should be. The village is the same, yet somehow changed. You notice that you have also changedyour senses are more alive than youve ever known. You stand at a strange yet familiar crossroad. Out of the mist, a voice calls your name. W Warning, this anthology contains stories that include one or more of the following: explicit heterosexual and/or lesbian sex, graphic language, voyeurism, bondage, and sex with imaginary, non-human entities.

This review is from: Tales from Lachmuirghan (Paperback)

I bought the book because I love Madeleine Oh and can't find much of her in print. This turned out to be an anthology - a mix of lovely writers taking the one subject, the Northern Scottish town of Lachuirghan and writing vignettes about it and it's legends. The town is a little like "Brigadoon" in that elements appear and disappear - but there are a few constants. Love in the form of gorgeous male ghosts and spirits to fulfill steamy, erotic sexual fantasies, which abound to heal lonely, curious and/or broken women. There's a library where a very, very old bookseller directs the customer to what he feels is needed for their situation - the need for love and answers to curiosity. There's a castle and a bakery and 3 inns which appears out of the mists, or don't - depending on the needs of each of the women. Sexy, gorgeous (are there any other kinds of heroic men in erotic fiction? Ghosts and spirits of the past and present. Wonderful characters abound, wonders never cease. Utterly unexpected, utterly charming and a most delicious read.
