I was challenged to read this book by a friend (Doug, I’m looking at you!) I met at MidAmericon II. I’ll admit I wasn’t going to review this book on my blog because I don’t normally read this type of book. However, I changed my mind as One Does Not Simply Walk into Tudor grew on me as I read it in preparation for a late night adult reading for ICON 41.
The only other book I’ve read that vaguely falls into the same genre as One Does Not Simply Walk into Tudor is Fifty Shades of Grey. And yes, I read all 3 books and yes, I was sorely disappointed in the lack of character development and repetitive nature of the plot. One Does Not Simply Walk into Tudor was a refreshing hilarious romp through time and well written.
The book is truly about friendships and how friendships, no matter how much time has passed, can be renewed. Beth and Tawny’s friendship was genuine and was the driving piece of the story—how they would travel through time to save each other’s asses.
I will admit the steamy bits were indeed steamy. *blushes* They didn’t feel awkward or forced as I have experienced in your standard nickel-nasty. The steamy bits didn’t overwhelm the novel either. If you are a fan of the steamy bits, Kirk and Teague provided, in the electronic version, an index right at the start that will jump you right to those passages with a simple click.
Is One Does Not Simply Walk into Tudor the next Outlander? No, but it was a fun diversion for a few short days and certainly raised my expectations for erotic fiction. I’ll also probably never look at Ann Boleyn in the same way again.

Review
"One Does Not Simply Walk Into Tudor is a laugh-a-minuteexploration of another time period, complete with lessons of friendship, the importance of family relationships and of course erotic escapades. I went into reading this book rolling my eyes; I left a believer in theseries and can't wait for more." -FangirlNation
"...a huge step in female character development in erotica. For a book that focuses on friendship and being proud of being a female, I give it an A+ and I can't wait for the next books to come in this series." -SluttyGirlProblems.com
"The erotic scenes strike a difficult balance. They manage to be satisfyingly descriptive without being overly graphic." -TheLadyNerds.com
"The central plot is inventive with just the right touch of sexual andwitty situations to liven things up. Tawny and Beth remind me of thequirky women on British TV shows. Their characters are well drawn withendearing idiosyncrasies." -OnlineBookClub.org
"WILDLY WILD AND FUNNY!" -NerdGirlOfficial.com
About the Author

This was a really fun story. I don`t usually read novels that have this much sex in them, but the story is so great and fun. The relationship between Beth and Tawny is wonderful. Two old friends who haven`t spoken in a really long time who need each other and are able to reconnect. They realize that they need each other even more now than they ever did and that they are still best friends, they are able to go on a crazy adventure together. I can`t wait for the next one!

The first volume of the Time Bangers series, this book is a great, easy read. The sex scenes are sexy, the humor is actually funny, the sci-fi is fun and airy, and all of it is well-written.
The deeper substance of the book is really about the friendship between Beth and Tawny. They are just rediscovering their friendship and the time-travel sex smorgasbord aspects of the book test that friendship in ways that are fun (and raunchy) to explore. I'm excited to see what debauched levity their friendship brings about in book two now that it appears to have survived book one, Tudor boners and all.

I don't often read erotica for pleasure, but I had the great fortune to come across Ivery Kirk's Twitter feed at one point, and her sense of humor really stood out. When I discovered that she and her writing partner, Luna Teague, had a book available on Amazon, I bought it that same evening.
Now that I've had a chance to read it, I have to say that it did not disappoint. I laughed aloud more often than I would have expected, and my expectations were high in the first place.
Looking forward to the sequel!

I LOVE THIS BOOK! I read it the day one of the authors Luna Teague, aka Rissi from Damsels of Dorkington, talked about it after a performance by the Damsels. I read and finished it the day I downloaded it. I can't wait for the sequel. My only regret is that it is not a dead tree book that can be signed.

I took a chance on this book after meeting the authors at the World Science Fiction Convention; I'm glad I did. Even if you ignore the erotic scenes, the story stands up and the characters feel real. I enjoyed the scene-setting in Tudor England, too, and I'm looking forward to further books in the series.
Not suitable for under-18s, of course. :-)

This is well written erotica. The story of two women finding themselves and bonding while having hot sex with historical figures is pretty amazing. I never thought any of these things would flow together in an erotica, but the two authors nailed it. I can't wait to read the next one.

Surprisingly touching story about best friends reuniting after years losing touch. It's smart, nerdy, but not too sciencey to go over your head. Hilarious without trying to hard. No slapstick or comedy that insults your intelligence. Steamy sex scenes that don't read like erotica or smut. Honest scenes about adults enjoying sex. Plus, it's got time travel and historical celebrities that really hit home for a history nerd like me. Give it a chance, you'll love this book.
