Members mystofpric Posted June 14, 2008 Author Members Report Posted June 14, 2008 "Having paid dearly for ignoring Elua's edict to love as thou wilt, Imriel and Sidonie have finally come forward to publicly confess their love for each other---only to watch the news ignite turmoil throughout the land. Those who are old enough cannot forget the misdeeds of Imriel's mother, Melisande, whose self-serving lies plunged their country into war. In order to quell the uprising, Queen Ysandre hands down a decree: she will not divide the lovers, but neither will she acknowledge them. And if they decide to marry, Sidonie will be disinherited. That is, unless Imriel can find his mother and bring her back to Terre D'Ange to be executed for treason...." Quote

Members mystofpric Posted June 14, 2008 Author Members Report Posted June 14, 2008 Jacqueline Carey wrote an amazing book series that start about a young woman named Phedre. The story takes place in the land of Terre d'ange (the land of angels). Here there is one law that rules above all, broken at the risk of the gods, "Love as thou wilt"(yeah my siggy). This is a land where prositution is a way of worship and in fact the courtisans are blessed. Phedre was born with a red mark in one of her eyes, marking her as Kushiel's (the punisher of sins). Essentially she is a submissive who will literally take whatever you can give her and not give you her safe word. She is adopted and trained as a spy by her adopted father. Using her unique skills she saves her country countless times. The last three books follow her adopted son who is of Kushiel's line and therefore a dom. This is the sexiest, most exciting, heart wrenching wonderful book series ever. Replace all the magic of Harry Potter with sex, and that's only starting to touch on the amazingness.It starts with Kushiel's Chosen, super amazing! Quote
Members cmwise1 Posted June 14, 2008 Members Report Posted June 14, 2008 This is one of the best book series i have ever read. Exciting, very sexy, did I mention very sexy? I hated to end the books. I recommend them to everyone..get the first one paperback and see if you are enthralled. Sex, dom, submission, treachery, more sex...the sex scenes would give me goosebumps. Not erotica, but a great story line. Quote
