5.0 out of 5 stars Sleeping Beauty Awakens, 2 Sep 1999
By A Customer
Sleeping Beauty awakens to find Prince Charming is taking her to his castle not to make her his wife but take her through an adventure which makes her subject to the whims of the countless inhabitants of his castle. Her adventures continue when she visits the local village in the second novel and is abducted and taken to a Sultan's castle in the third. But in the end her greatest adventure is finding true love.

I read all three of Ann Rice's Sleeping Beauty novel's, and almost every other book she's ever written. I loved her other books because of the sensual, erotic way in which she writes. When I bought the trilogy, I never imagined I would encounter the best erotic fiction I have ever read. I loved the Trilogy. I would highly recommend it to anyone with an open mind, however if you are not, then read at your own risk.

5.0 out of 5 stars well, it certainly ain't disney!, 14 Nov 2002
By A Customer
as someone who works in an adult store, i've seen my fair share of erotica. i've seen the repetative, boring movies. i've read the flimsy fiction in mags. but it wasn't until i read these books that i realised how erotic erotica could be!

so they're not for the faint-hearted, (if the idea of bondage puts you off, maybe read something else). this is no wishy-washy, rose-tinted tale! this is an honest, laid bare look at the most primal of our desires.

the story follows Beauty through her 'development' from girl to woman. we feel her pleasure, her desire, her frustration, her lust... and all the while the book is peppered with fantastic imagery of locations, of people, (and of gizmos).

like sleeping beauty, open your eyes to the world for the first time. read these books and never look back!

5.0 out of 5 stars Be still my heart, 22 Nov 2000
By A Customer
I read mixed reviews about the book, but decided to chance it and I have to say it was most definitely worth it. If you're not a fan of submission and bondage in books and lots of spanking lots and lots of spanking then the books not for you. But if you want intelligent erotica that sensually explores the nature of submission then do buy it. Its not about D/S relationships, and if you're looking for something of that nature you won't find it. It's a fairytale fantasy about the whims of the Lords and Ladies and the auction at the village, and a different nature of slavery under the sultan. I highly recommend it, if you're unsure try reading reviews at amazon.com the US site there are a lot more and I found them highly useful.
