Product Description

Book Description
Light-hearted and fun to read, SCREW THE ROSES, SEND IN THE THORNS tells readers everything they need (and want!) to know about sadomasochism. Deeply committed to the blend of trust, fantasy and sensuality that makes S/M an intensely erotic and deeply intimate experience, Miller and Devon here offer everyone - from the complete novice to the well-practised sub or dom - clear explanations, solid advice, safety measures and steamy suggestions. Illustrated with over 225 photos and illustrations, the book also includes a glossary and 30-page resources listing.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Bdsm Book Ive Read!!, 5 Mar 2003
By S. Fielding (Bristol Uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is without doubt my best investment in furthering my knowledge of the BDSM scene. The humour is top knotch but the wealth of information found within these pages is immesurable when compared to simular books. I would wholeheartedly recommend anyone new to BDSM or just wanting to expand thier knowledge to buy this before anything else!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Greatest D/s Book, A True Classic By True Lifestylers, 13 Jul 2000
By madcic@yahoo.com (Northants, England) - See all my reviews
A wonderful introduction to BDSM or a helpful resource for the more advanced? Look no further, this book guides both Dom(me)s and subs through every aspect of a BDSM relationship. Opinionated and factual, relevant and intelligently humorous, the darker side of desire is explored, probed and caressed by Philip and Molly to give a truly outstanding work. Features like knots,rope harnesses, making your own equipment, correct methods of using floggers and even a complete breakdown of the male and female anatomy with target areas and places to avoid clearly marked all add up to the most comprehensive guide to the lifestyle there is. Buy it NOW!

4.0 out of 5 stars Screw the rose send me the thorns, 15 Sep 2004
I was blown over by this book. Yes it's informative, yes it's light hearted. But it's real strength lies in it's ability to reach out to those of us who don't want the romance and want - well the thorns...yes the title says it all. For those of us who are too scared to embrace a world that seems cliquey, distant and inaccessible this book is spot on, I guess it's aimed more at those of us who are curious or who are novices. This is a informative book which brings to life a world that my fantasies are based on and yet never minimises my fears. However it is aimed more at the US market, a more UK friendly version would really be appreciated by this reader. Well done though, I want more books like this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb book, nicely put together
This is an excellent book, and a marvellous companion to SM101, which is also worth a read.

This one reads like a book, while SM101 is more of an instruction manual. Read more
