In the traditional folktale of Sleeping Beauty, the spell cast upon the lovely young princess and everyone in her castle can only be broken by the kiss of a Prince. It is an ancient story, one that originally emerged from and still deeply disturbs the mind's unconscious. Now Anne Rice's retelling of the Beauty story probes the unspoken implications of this lush, suggestive tale by exploring its undeniable connection to sexual desire.
Here the Prince reawakens Beauty, not with a kiss, but with sexual initiation. His reward for ending the hundred years of enchantment is Beauty's complete and total enslavement to him...as Anne Rice explores the world of erotic yearning and fantasy in a classic that becomes, with her skillful pen, a compelling experience.

" A fantastic version of the sleeping beauty fairy tale. Erotica at its finest. NOT for the closed minded of faint of heart! "
" Love them all. Each one better than the last. "
" all i can say is hot hot and oh my god hot "
" This is pure erotica. Not a romance. There is a lot of BDSM, servitude, Punishment, f/m, m/m, f/f, and multiple partners in various forms. Not for the faint of heart. "
" not for the under 18 crowd "
" I love the sensual twists on the fairy tale. A completely grown-up version. "
" these were interesting..and very very erotic..not a light read by any stretch.I'm honestly not sure how I feel about them. "
" Rice writes as "A.N. Roqelaure" and retells the Sleeping Beauty fairy tale. Very graphic in nature. X-rated. However, the writing style is in the vivid Rice flavor and if you are not put off by the subject matter, these books are certainly read-worthy. Quick reads, all three... "
" If your after a pure (violent S&M) erotic book then this is for you. If you are after erotica with a good story then i dont recommend this at all. This is just pure violent, abusive sex. Not really my thing, but may be yours ;) "
" An extreme view of BDSM in a medieval setting with an interesting take on Sleeping Beauty. "
" Sexy and erotic and all about S & M. Gay men sex, heterosexual sex, lesbian sex. This series is all about sex. "
