| Review Summary |
The book was based about a creature that lured its prey through sex, so there were lots of sexual references and events.
Tim Olthouse, Resident Scholar
|
People and animals are being found dead and strangely dessicated, as if something had sucked them dry. Two people, Geode and Oenone meet and try to discover what is happening. Eventually they discover a strange creature with the ability to produce sexually incapacitating pheromones is responsible for the deaths. The book has a lot of sexual content in graphic detail. It is a good story too, if you are not offended by descriptions of sex.
James Xavier, Resident Scholar
