Title: A gay bodice-ripper !
Product review: As expected from this series there is plenty of sex. Jack Gorden introduces some novel ideas (straight sex, watching rutting deer, hermaphrodites) but ultimately I was diasappointed. The bookish Christopher and his Irish bit of rough didn't ring true and some of the scenes were unintentionally comic. Readers should note that less than half the novel is set aboard the ship...the rest in London and rural England. But I don't want to sound too harsh. I wasn't expecting great literature and the fact that I didn't get turned on may be a purely personal reaction. I still think "Conquistador" is the best of this series.
