Review:

"Beauty's Punishment" by Anne Rice is  a sequel  from book one:   The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty" where we find it is another 'steamy erotica' read of how 'Beauty and Prince Tristan' survive in 'The Village' that is told to you in
first and third person. 

Now, let me stop here and say if you haven't read the first book and not open to erotica, bdsm, fantasy, fairy tales, sexuality ....STOP!  The read wouldn't be of interest at all to you.  This novel is not for the faint of heart so be aware of this. OK, continuing on... "Beauty's Punishment"  is of her being "punished for having rebelled against Prince Tristan....where she is auctioned, captivated and subjected to some of the most erotic, cruel and tantalizing games of domination and submission."  I will stop and this point and say to find out  any more  about this read you must pick up "Beauty's Punishment" to see how this author puts it all together  for the reader in this fairy tale. Ms. Rice works really well at  illustrating all of this to the reader even presenting some twist and turns really making this a intriguing read.  Believe me when I say you once you start will be kept reading just to see what is coming next. (At least it was for me).  It really amazes me how this author was able to recraft this fairy tale into a adult
fantasy series...leaving me only to say WOW!


If you are into this read and  one who enjoys what Ms. Rice has to offer in her Trilogy reads ...Bravo....Would I recommend this to you? ...only YES if this type of book is of interest to YOU!
