I love XXXenophile!

Too much erotica is violent, misogynistic, and takes itself too seriously. XXXenophile, by contrast, is non-violent, girl-friendly, and funny as hell.

I would recommend XXXenophile (any of the collections) for any adult who likes good comics; but I would especially recommend it for people looking for well-written, entertaining erotica (even if they're not into comics).

There are very few books that are genuinely sexy and uproariously funny, but this is one of them.

Science fiction sex comedy - it actually makes sense, and this is done very nicely. The vignettes are all well drawn in Foglio's amusing style, and are all gentle and consensual. Some (maybe most) are a little kinky, but there are no dark or hard edges here.

I have trouble calling this erotic, even though every tale (and occasional tail) is 'anatomically explicit.' Foglio's stories are just too comical and cartoonish. The SF angle allows for some otherwise improbable premises, so there are many different angles on mankind's oldest entertainment.

The series is funny, affectionate, and memorable. You may not remember any one story a month later. The happy, funny tone is what's worth a return visit, maybe again and again.

I love Phil Foglio's work. Rife with explicit content, this is not for the meek. I highly recommend it for the short stories contained, only because the artfully drawn caricatures are worth waiting for. I poured through this volume (and have already done so with the other four) with wild abandon. Comic, inventive-the situations the stories are based upon are really quite varied and they hold the readers' interest-and also overtly perverse, I thoroughly enjoyed this collection. I am a Phil Foglio fan for life!

Explicit sex as good clean fun in a variety of fantasy and sci-fi settings. Excellent humor.

This is the first of Phil's 'XXXenophile Collection' books, which were drawn from his earlier adult comics. The nine stories in this graphic novel are each as funny as any Phil Foglio fan would expect, and if you are not a fan then this book could very well bring you over to our side. While the stories are undeniably of an adult, although not necessarily mature, nature they depict loving, caring, humorous individuals. And for any fans of Buck Godot you should recognize one of the characters in a story from this book. Volume One is worth more than every penny you will pay for it in the laughs it will bring you.
