This book did so much more just add words to my existing knowledge and experience, as I had expected. This book taught me things. This book changed the way that I think about relationships. All relationships, not just poly. I have spent the last two days lost in thought, re-evaluating a lot of my own choices and beliefs. And that’s good. That’s what a great book like this should do.

Combines Miss Abernathy’s Concise Slave Training Manual and Training With Miss Abernathy in one deluxe volume.
Replete with updated resources and references, Erotic Slavehood will take its place among the basic BDSM reference manuals.

Respected columnist and scene leader Rinella has carefully explored how BDSM relationships fit into real people's lives.
From that research, and his own two decades as an active leatherman, he has assembled this sensible, readable manual about how kinky relationships really work.

Ask and you shall receive. I put up a post a couple days ago wishing for people to review good BDSM books and I heard from a few great candidates already, the first of which just posted her first review last night.
Check out Lydia’s page for more on her. If you are interested in writing for XCBDSM, either as a reviewer or as an author, send me a message through the contact page.

Inspired by Raven Kaldera’s The Eightfold Path to Altered States of Consciousness, which is reproduced in the Appendix, Lee Harrington clearly draws from Kaldera’s work in Northern Tradition Shamanism and applies it to Sacred Kink. No, I will not be addressing any critics of Kaldera’s Shamanism work, there is a time and place for such shenanigans. This is not it. Also, I do not walk that path so I don’t care.
This is not a book for the beginner spiritual worker, this is not the book for the beginner kinkster. This book is for that delicate, intermediate stage of “I’m past my 101 stage and searching for something more.” or “I wonder if my kink means something more to me than just the sex, so I need some things to make me think.” Many of the concepts mentioned are not for the faint of heart. So you are going to need a grounding in the basics, and then some, before you think about picking this up, spiritually, kinky, and ethically. (more…)
