 Rating:  - BoringThis book was horrible. It was long, drawn out and not at all entertaining. Don't buy it[...]! Rating:  - not that greatthis book actually has to stories in it, the first one, is just plain weird, and the second isn't much better. they're well written, i just didn't care for the plot lines. Rating: - Strange combinationThere are two completely disparate novels contained in this publication. They are so different in both style and content that it is tough to believe that they were both written by the same person. The first novel is the story of a viriginal young woman that is forced to hire a detective to track down her errant younger sister. With only the missing girl's diary as a clue, the hardened detective leads the innocent young woman into an underground world of hedonists, ready to devour the naive girl. This book is passably written, the scenes are interesting but the characters are stock and hard to believe. The heroine sucumbs too quickly and begins performing unbelievably hard core feats with little encouragement or time to adjust. The book would have been more interesting if the author had spent more time on her "fall from grace". The second book is the tale of Roman's senators wife and the debauchery that takes place when you through soliders, gladiators, vestal virgins and little conflict together. There are fewer sex scenes and very little description given in this book. Some of the sex scenes feel like they were gratuitously thrown in and almost disrupt the flow of the novel. I had trouble finishing the second half of the book. Overall, the first book was worth reading but the second is somewhat boring. Rating:  - Two disparate masterpieces ...'The Devils Advocate' is a full 265 page story about Clara who hires a detective, Garnett to find her sister Rita who has somehow disappeared. The story takes place in more or less modern day California and develops as Clara and Garnett read Ritas' secret diary. ... 'Roman Orgy' is an almost 200 page book of Spartacus and Clodia, the wife of one of Romes' senators, Crassus. Yes we have slaves, gladiators, virgins, rape and deception. The seduction of Spartacus by Clodia must be one of the MOST erotic scenes EVER written! Rating:  - extremely eroticA Book extremely erotic ans well scripted. If you are looking for a book full of steamy sex then this is the one. just go for it. It is definitely worth the price you are paying. |
