There are six novelletes in this book, the stories being set from Ancient Rome to the next century. The extremes of torture as eroticism are explored, not always with happy results, just about never with consensuality: that's what makes for the plots. This is not a book about happy, carefree people having lovely fun: its the dark side, and if that is your thing you will probably enjoy it. If you are only willing to entertain the politically correct, then avoid this book by all means and read Rebbeca of Sunnybrook Farm Does Dallas. Oh yeah; this is Gay SM, not Straight. They are very different fantasies, so be aware of that. Also, if you are looking for an introduction to the topic, this is not it: go to a primer. This is not stuff to try at home, nor is it for kids. But it is recommended for those who (a) understand what it is about, and (b) like this sort of reading.
