5.0 out of 5 stars The art of erotica, January 4, 2001
As with each passing, Luis Royo offers more promissing and sexual images than in any of his prior works. This book is definitely not for the young as many of the images do little, if anything to hide the sexual interests being portrayed. Still, any fan of Luis Royo, erotic art or art in general would be mistaken to miss this work. The mood in which this book is portrayed could be argued, but nothing can remove from the quality of art that Luis Royo achieved in this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars The title says it all, December 23, 2000
By "aioa" (Stockholm, Sweden) - See all my reviews
"Prohibited" is the sexually most explicit of Royo's books. Again, astonishingly beautiful, sexy women are the center of attention. It's like a notebook for "III Millenium" 'coz the background is dark, suggesting danger. My biggest problem with this book is that the pictures are ranging from small to tiny, which gives me this 'notebook'-impression. Other than that it is high quality work. Royo's use of light is simply excellent - as always.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected, December 9, 2002
Well I enjoyed this book to some degree, but it just wasn't what I expected. The images in it are incredbly beautiful, but the text seems to be a little bit over the top, and ever silly at times. This is a nice book of illustrated erotica, but I usually find myself ignoring the words and just appreciating the artwork.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good art, but why is it still on my shelf?
Luis Royo has talent. You would know, or else why check out the reviews to 'double-check'? His finished pieces are amazing, as you can see on covers of his books, but is it worth... Read more

The artwork that is in the book is interesting but the number of larger artworks is disappointing, most are small. The book itself is thin and small. Read more
