Beauty's Punishment by Anne Rice, A.N. Roquelaure
5.0
I read this trilogy many years ago, before the birth of the internet and social media. I am a longtime member of the BDSM community, so I took it for what it was...a Master/slave fantasy written by a vanilla author. If you have no understanding of BDSM, don't bother with this trilogy. The imagery will make your head explode, and you just won't get the appeal. It is NOT for everybody.
You also must understand that Anne Rice is a prolific writer. She uses flowery words and relies more on exposition than character interaction. If you're just trying to "get to the good stuff", you'll be disappointed. This is intellectual smut, and that's not for everybody, either.
The audiobooks were narrated by Elizabeth Montgomery, whose voice I have always loved. Very stimulating.
