| 1. The Mistress Manual: A Good Girl's Guide to Female Dominance (Erotic) by Lorelei I don't usually gravitate towards the dominance side of bdsm but I did have a lover at one time who wished to explore his own submissive nature. This book is an excellent education for any woman or man, for that matter, who is interested in experiencing female dominance. This is not a simple overview of female dominance or bdsm techniques but a true manual that takes you through the evolution of becoming a Mistress and the enacting of fantasy with your male partner. If you are new to the concept of female dominance this is an excellent book to guide you through the pleasure and pain of being ...

| 2. Story of O by Pauline Reage Written, in a time when erotica and SM were strictly taboo, this novel is devoid of the coarseness that is usually found in works handling the subject. The cover tells that this is neither a work of fiction nor an autobiographical account. I believe it to be a combination of the two. From the very first page I was gripped. Who indeed, would think that a walk in the park would lead so quickly to a journey which would change ones life, so completely, forever? So in love is O, that at the Chateau Roissy she abandons all sense of self, stability and safety and commits utterly to her lovers ...

| 3. Burlesque and the Art of the Teese / Fetish and the Art of the Teese by Dita Von Teese For starters, this book really is a bargain price: Dita could easily have priced this at £30 or £40. It's a substantial, heavy hardback, full of quality glossy pages. The book is split into two sections- the front is Burlesque and the Art of the Teese, but flip the book over and the book is called Fetish and the Art of the Teese. Each section equates to pretty much half of the book, so there is no preference shown for one or the other. Inside, most of the full page photos are accompanied by a page of text, so it's not just a book of photos, there is also a lot about Dita herself. She reveals ...

The book is divided into several sections, firstly giving some useful hints and tips on the different types of rope out there and the pros and cons of each; this is followed by a guide to doing the do's and don'ts within rope bondage, including safety (very important); the basic knots are then covered; and finally sections on different applications of the specialist ...

If your partner even hints at bondage then get this book and read it, a fantastic way to introduce someone into the delights of bondage written by the expert herself.

| 7. Shibari You Can Use: Japanese Rope Bondage and Erotic Macrame by Lee "Bridgett" Harrington I've got Midori's book and although beutifully illustrated it was rather too complicated to follow for a beginner like me. This on the other hand doesn't have pretty colour photo's (hence not being 5 stars) but does have clear instructions starting from the most basic ideas and working up to eleborate designs; my wife loves the idea of the rope corsets although we do need about 60 feet of rope. Pictures are in B&W and the printing quality is pretty low, think laser printed photos, but there are lots of them!

| 9. 120 Days of Sodom (Arena Books) by Marquis De Sade D.A.F. De Sade's opus and no surprise that his name would forever more be synonymous with vicious acts meted out purely for sexual gratification. A catalogue of sexual deviations, degenerating into ever-increasing cruelty as a group of captives (mainly children) are tormented and tortured to death.An excellent translation. It is a surprisingly comic work which draws the reader in. It is also a subversive work, portraying the horrors as perpetrated by those with the unlimited resources to indulge their murderous tastes and the power or connections to avoid having to answer for them.

It is a tribute to the open-mindedness of modern publishing that such an extreme text which was for so long out of print and unavailable in English, is here offered to the reader at a knock-down price. Even the most casual reader cannot avoid being at once fascinated and repelled by the graphic descriptions of morbid yearnings never satisfied despite beatings, humiliations and tortures to soul and body. The painting about which Sacher-Masoch dreamed so vividly and to which frequent reference is made throughout the text is ...

| 11. The New Bottoming Book by Dossie Easton The one thing I actually do not like is the way this book is so filled with the authors' personal anecdotes. It is a weird mix of being instructional and factual (although most of it is stuff that you find in abundance online of you look) and being an insight into some in my mind too personal matters. However, I think this is a good book for anyone who has a beginning interest in bottoming, and for those who are more experienced it will offer a little more than just an updated library. It is one of those books that makes the attempt to cover most of the scene in a rather limited amount of ...

While there are numerous other excellent SM books on the market, John's book covers topics not normally covered in other "introductory SM books, like how to act at a play party, and taking memorable pictures of your own private scenes. Also included are sections on First Aid, "Stalking the Wild Submissive," (very important!) and ways to do scenes that are exciting ...

However, it's not made at all clear to the potential buyer that the focus of this book is the gay (male) leather community. Although people from other fetish lifestyles could also find this book interesting, it's written mostly for the benefit of leathermen and there should really be some indication of this in the title or description.
In some places, the author has a tendency to allow his personal opinions of particular practices to influence his writing a little too much, but this is easily ...

| 16. Princess Spider: True Experiences of a Dominatrix by Princess Spider This book was really disappointing. Normally I love biographies, but this was basically just a 200 page advert for Princess Spider's services. Towards the end of the book she also wrote about how people were now going to fetish clubs and using the net to meet their kink needs instead of visiting professional Dommes, which made me think this even more. I kind of got the impression she was concerned about potentially losing business and thought this book might help her out (which I rather suspect it will to be honest). I wouldn't mind a 200 page advert so much if it made scintilating reading, ...

This isn't a book for anyone hoping to build on existing BDSM know-how, and nor is it meant to be. The book acknowledges that femdom can be intimidating for the novice lady and thus it's aimed at novices, intending to reassure and guide those who may doubt their abilities to act the ...

A "slut" feels that it is not reprehensible to do this and that it is a normal part of human behaviour. It takes the view that you are going to want sex, sex is good and you should go get it in whatever quantities you want, with whoever you want, whether you are in a relationship or not. The authors believe this is normal and that it is your right. This may be so, but if you don't believe that having sex with other people while in a ...

| 20. "Justine", "Philosophy in the Bedroom" and Other Writings by Marquis de Sade People intrested in sadomasochistic sex are often thought of as people who are on the fringe of society, as people who have not learnt the rules and who cannot fit in. Sade however was obviously very intelligent, his philosophies are well thought out and contain ingenious analogies. Having studied numerous similar religeous theologies for several years I found it was very stimulating to read a convincing argument of the contrary. He does a good job of making a life of vice and selfishness sound a excusable path to choose. One last point, I think the Dialogue between a priest and a dying ...

It then goes on to look at some of the techniques used, such as whipping, ropework, blindfolds ...

Today many Pagans are discovering this path, by accident or by design. Simultaneously, many practitioners of secular BDSM are finding themselves having spiritual experiences in the middle of their most secular scenes. This book explores the crossover points between both these communities and practices, a cross-section which is growing steadily, baring controversial articles on topics as diverse as sacred pain, ...

A surprisingly tender love story initially set against a backdrop of "The Club" (an S+M holiday resort for the rich and famous that is staffed by numerous slaves and trainer employees, set up by the main female character Lisa). This is beautifully written from the two main characters points of view, Lisa and her slave Eliot, which provides a magnificent emotional depth to the tale. This book manages to be intensely sexy and erotic without either of the characters coming across as being degraded even in the strongest of scenes. You will want to read the whole thing in ...

The fact that the book deals with the 'missing years' of Betties life, including her alleged descent into mental illness and arrest for attempted murder during this turbulent period, left me with the uncomfortable feeling that the author was simply cashing-in on the subject's mis-fortune with a sensationalist piece of journalism.However, having suspended my misgivings and read the book I have to admit that it is indeed a ...

It tries to constantly evoke some bizarre form of spirituality by doing such things as referring to the human body as a "skin suit"
There is also a far too great a number of "vignettes".
These are tedious drivel masquerading as spicy little tales referred to on the cover notes as "... plenty of steamy real-life anecdotes of piercers, piercees and the connection between them".
Then of course there is the authors admission that she is a vapirist and enjoys ingesting human blood - whoa ...

| 29. Screw the Roses, Send Me the Thorns: The Romance and Sexual Sorcery of Sadomasochism by Philip Miller I bought this book after about a year into BDSM. It manages to be pretty encyclopaedic on the important areas and makes some good points on safe play. It's also useful as a general 'how do you do that?' guide ... but there's something missing. For a book with the subtitle 'the romance and sexual sorcery of sadomasochism', this manages to convey very little of the 'wow' factor of good BDSM. Maybe the fact that I've never been into group scenes is colouring my judgement, but at times, the tone gets a bit - dare I say - 'worthy but dull'. It's certainly difficult to convey on paper how much ...

Our whole lives consist of suppressing our natural urges and instincts out of respect for the rights of others; in that sense, the human is never free, we are always a slave to the opinion and respect of others.

In 'Return to the Chateau' however, Reage seems to have abandoned O to the whims of the mostly absent Sir Stephen. He returns her to the place of her initiation, alone this time, to be prostituted and cry herself to sleep each night. I so wanted her devotion to be rewarded - but maybe a true submissive does not even hope for that? Is this the point Reage wants us to see? I'd make a terrible subbie I think.

The book does mention alot about getting involved in the lifestyle - but more for someone who is single or swinging for someone in a long term relationship it might be a bit different and off putting when the author just talks about how to get a different man each night.

It is a generous volume of some of the late Stanton's best artwork with graphic examples of women getting the better of men. Apparently, these items of work were the product of commissions, and it is interesting to ponder how widespread the desire for women to be in control of men is. There is great variation within what could be a limited field: women of colour in charge, women ganging up on single men, women in the mafia, women reassigning the house keeping chores etc. Plenty to keep one titillated. ...

| 49. The World of Sexual Dominance and Submission by Gloria G. Brame I been involved in a true 24/7 BDSM Lifestyle for the past 25 years. Most of the books written on the subject were either pornographic in nature and/or lacking in the true understanding of the proper dynamics in a healthy consensual BDSM Lifestyle. This book is WONDERFUL. I completely agree with every aspect of this book. It is so well written and so informative and accurate.I usually do not read BDSM books because so many books are filled with fantasy/nonsense. This book was refreshing. My slave and I read a chapter at a time and discussed the topics. I enjoyed the authors interviewing ...

| 50. Beauty's Release by A.N. Roquelaure This is the third, and in my opinion the best, in A.N. Roquelaure's 'Sleeping Beauty' trilogy. It's erotic fiction with a BDSM slant, by the way :-)For those of you familiar with the preceeding books, this one focuses slightly more on the male characters than the previous books. It takes the story forward, revealing the eventual fates of the principals in the trilogy.I don't want to spoil anything for you, so I'll not go into depth on what occurs. The conclusion is slightly 'telegraphed', but what the heck, happy endings are always nice to see these days.If you liked the earlier ...

| 51. Trainer, the: Marketplace Book Three (Marketplace (Mystic Rose)) by Laura Antoniou The Trainer is the third of five books in Laura Antoniou's Marketplace Series. It has all of Antoniou's wit, charm and wonderful writing style, blending fantasy with reality, and the erotic with the mundane in the most enigmatic of styles. Plus, we get to meet Anderson, the Trainer of Trainers, a most engaging woman. And yet...while Chris Parker is as fascinating as ever, Michael LaGuardia, the other central character, is overly petty and simplistic, even one-sided to some extent. He needs to be written as arrogant in order to be shaken up with some "real" training, but I think that he's just ...

| 52. Doris Kloster's Demimonde: A Visual Exploration of Fetish by Doris Kloster I have now collected a number of the fetish photography books available. This book is of particular interest because of it's photo-journalistic feel. The images are beautiful and the image reproduction is of the high standard that I have come to expect of the Carlton publications. Kloster has captured a rich selection of photos that the reader gets glimpses of people's lives rather than looking at models who have been dressed up in the right gear (as I have often noticed in other works). The locations are excellent and I love that she has not relied upon studios. I enjoyed the fact that ...

Page was the top pin-up model in New York at the time and Yeager an aspiring photographer. They hit it off and Page agreeably posed even when Yeager could only pay her $5. They had a lot in common. Yeager started out as a model herself, taking camera courses at a vocational school, for fun and to augment her portfolio with self-portraits. Both were expert seamstresses, sewing their own bikinis. Bunny Yeager never intended to become a top professional glamour ...

Heat and cold offer almost infinite possibilities for the devious sensualist, and Spectrum, a scientist as well as a personal devotee of the art, has spent many years studying the ways to make temperature play safe as well as, well, hot.

Sounds painful, but if done properly will release endorphines, testosterone and adrenalin which will lead to pleasure. Horny for straight and gay guys and makes for a very interesting read!

I think that Sarah Veitch is better value - she'll have erotic whipping, caning, effective talking down and forced-to-strip-in-public humiliation in a single chapter whereas in some of the Beauty books you have page after page where a man is simply crawling about ...

In "Pedro" a college boy has a summer affair with a truck driver, while in "Interludes", a lonely bottom develops his body to perfection, then seeks out the daddy who will cherish this gift.

| 75. In Search of a Master by John Preston As a psychological study of what drives people to give themselves to another, this book falls flat. There is too much sex - and yet not enough interaction to convince us that this is something people would give their lives for. What there is demonstrates nothing, is placed seemingly at random, and is bland enough that the whole elaborate circumstance of submission that has been so verbosely dissected by the characters seems meaningless. All the characters present emotional and philosophical arguments for just why they have become slaves. But they haven't really become slaves, have they? ...

| 96. Asia Bondage by Steven Speliotis ...and this is a prime example.If you're a fan of bondage, this book could come as a huge disappointment, especially as its cover promises so much. The quality of the photography is high (if occasionally 'air-brushed'), but in its exploration of the subject of bondage it leaves a lot to be desired. Surely a large part of the point of bondage is restraint, and you can't restrain someone by merely draping a few bits of rope over them!
