Full description for Carnal Machines
Full Power Erotica For such a tightly laced age, Victorians spent a lot of time thinking about things carnal--proving, of course, that what is repressed will be even more exciting once the corset is unlaced. In "Carnal Machines," D.L. King has curated stories by outstanding contemporary erotica writers who use the enthralling possibilities of the 19th century steam age to tease and titillate in a decadent fusing of technology and romance. In Teresa Noelle Roberts' "Human Powered," a widowed lady engineer invents a small device that can store the energy from sexual frustration to provide total satisfaction. Poe Von Page delights with a crew sailing the solar winds of space, in unusual service to their new captain in "Mutiny on the "Danika Blue."" "Carnal Machines" takes you to another world filled with brothels, flying machines, steam-powered sex toys, manor houses and spiritualist societies--even Doctor Watson makes a house call. Fantastic, fantasy-filled and stoked to full power, "Carnal Machines" is a steamy read that guarantees many happy endings.
