a piece of history
I actually loved this book. Granted, some of the stories seem dated now that almost a decade has passed - but the heart of the stories still speaks to me. Boring Beginning of a Great Series
I picked this book up because I've read, and adored, the Best Lesbian Erotica 1999, 2000 and 2001 editions.I figured the book that started it all of couldn't be bad.I was wrong.The first story is about.....eating glue as a child in kindergarten.Impressively not erotic.About half the stories in this collection don't have any actual sex in them, and few of the stories that have to do with sex are actually arousing.I skipped over two stories as too boring and confusing to bother with, and had to force myself to make it to the end (where I was rewarded by a hot story by Pat Califia).Don't trying to track this down, as most of the few good stories in it are reprinted in Best of Best of Lesbian Erotica. ...

Good stories, and that is all that counts.
Setting aside all the silly politics of orientation and gender bias, how do the stories read?Quite well, for the most part.Some are quite gentle, tinged with an atmosphere of bittersweet romance.The stories A Light Minute and New York, N.Y. by Way of Taos, N.M being good examples.Others are firmly placed in the technoir/cyberpunk genre I know that the author loves dearly.The edge of your seat grabber Hot Definiton being a particular outstanding choice read in that department.Those wanting more sex focused stories and not hungering for real stories with just a basis in sex or sexuality had better look elsewhere.When picking this anthology up, the reader should really put down all the phony preconceptions about what a writer shouldor should not be and just concentrate on the important part of reading, which is and always will be the story - not s/he who tells it.Recommended.

Sexy, intelligent, and even sweet!
I've read most of M. Christian's work -- even the gay male stuff -- and love all of it.Most porn is pretty one-dimensional and completely lacking in any kind of substantive story.Where M. Christian excels is in weaving sex into an already well-crafted story, so that your mind AND your body gets involved.Good stuff.

Damned good read!
I was really surprised by how good this collection is: smart, wild, and always sexy.There's a lot of erotica being written out there and the best of it comes from M. Christian.Highly recommended! ... Read more

Jeff & More Jeff!
Steven Underhill is a well-known photographer of young guy next door type of images, and a very talented one to say the least.His many published books are collected all over the world.He certainly knows how to photograph his male models to their best advantage with the right lighting, shadows, and settings. Great Book of a Calendar Boy
Got the calendar then discovered that there was a book dedicated to Jeff. Now I hear Jeff has his own web page. Underhill, you've made a star. Keep up the good work.

One Calendar Decidated to One Boy
The calendar is all about Jeff and every month we get a wonderful new viewpoint of this guy. Thanks Steven for capturing the diversity of might others might just consider a pretty boy. ... Read more

misleading
A word of caution to this anthology of gay themed comics:
A Whole World of Gay Comics!
The debut volume of MEATMEN from 1986 is an amazing collection containing a wide variety of styles from no less than 29 different cartoonists!Nico,Brad Parker,"Blade","Tom Of Finland",Joe Johnson,"Sean","A.Jay","Stephen","Dandy",Jerry Mills,Howard Cruse,Bruce Billings,Jeffrey A. Krell,Tom Hachtman,Burton Clarke,Bing,Rick Campbell,Gerald Donelan,The Hun,Vaughn,Kurt Erichsen,Michael Goldberg & Richard Cornwell,Robert Triptow,David Young,Joe Sinardi,Gregoire,Bill Ward,and Tim Barela.(Whew!)Most of the material had appeared earlier, in The Barn 1948 (1980), Miss Thing (1973), Nova, Harry Chess In 3 Hot Vintage Episodes Vol.1 (1980), Firsthand, Manscape, In Touch, Gay Comix, Stroke, Male Review, Soho Weekly News, The Advocate, Torso, Drummer, and at least 23 different newspapers.Quite an achievement, putting all this together in one book!

The lost opportunity ?
In this novel, Welsh picks up a very exciting setting for a lesbian novel, an environment with nearly unlimited possiblilties in the world of erotic fantasy. She starts of well with a "classical" cast of dominas and submissives, headed by the notorious Col. Spoule. But on our way through the plot, something seems to disappear..... the passion! The mistresses are cruel and stern, and the submissive privates are crawling at their boots. But still, the sex that concludes the scenes is, with a few exceptions, somehow more violent than sexy. Punishment but no passion..... Not really erotica --- more like hard core punishment!!!
Maybe it's just me, but when I want to read about lesbian S&M I like a degree of sexual attraction involved in one or both parties.This book seriously lacked this.The main character just seemed to want to beat thedaylights out of the other women in her platoon.Was she attracted tothem?Were they attracted to her?No and no.If this book wants to beclassified as erotica then I would have to say the author failed todeliver. ...

Sheets Left Me Cold -- 2.5 stars
Though silk is one of the world's most luxurious fabrics, you wouldn't know it by these SILK SHEETS, James D. Jackson's story about a woman's sexual awakening. While Sheets isn't a total disaster, the story didn't keep me warm.
I enjoyed this read
Different strokes for different folks. Some of the review are way to harsh for this title. The book was good. It wasn't the best I ever read, but it certainly wasn't the worse. I recommend this book to anyone who likes good books!

Silk Sheets
I was looking forward to getting this book after reading the reviews...too bad I didn't choose another.I found the way it was written choppy making it hard to read (or hold an interest) The dialogue didn't seem to have much effort behind it; childish almost.Read more

A first-rate collection of sharply observed un-love stories
These interconnected stories follow the (lesbian) narrator's search for love in New York and overseas; De Lynn's minimalist style is a marvel, and she is a thematic cousin to Mary Gaitskill and Denis Johnson. ... Read more

Follow Up to Nighthawk
It took me a couple of years to get back to this to read it.I didn't think that this was better than Nighthawk, but it was still Very Good...I was also glued to this book and did not want to put it down.I'm not into this scene, but it is still Very Erotic Reading...It will either turn you On, or Off.If nothing else, it will definetly expand your horizons.... ...
