It might sound like a stretch, but I almost feel that this book was written just for me. There's bondage, hysteria treatments, arcane sex toys, robotic pleasure contraptions, female dominance, and much more. I loved the character development, and some stories I wish didn't end! If you have any inclination towards BDSM or steampunk, I highly recommend this as a read.

I didn't want to put this book down! I almost finished it the day I got it. D.L. King the editor did a wonderful job at selecting and editing the stories. This book is definitely worth looking into. I like it so much that I expect to read it again.
Follow-up commentary
I am in love with this book. I'd recommend this to anyone with any interest in BDSM or steampunk. It's well-written and sexy. You won't regret getting it.

Great review, Twisted Finger! I stopped reading this book halfway through when I got my copy of Playing With Fire for review, but I'm really excited to pick it up again. I'm not normally big into female dominance, but I love love love steampunk. You did a good job describing how the stories fit you.

Not a huge fan of Steampunk, but done the right way, I can get into it. Might have to check this out.

Oh, it's definitely worth looking into. I'd actually consider this one of the best works of erotica that I've ever read.

@Sthr: I highly suggest it. So far it's the best erotica compilation I've ever read.
