Full Power Erotica For such a tightly laced age, Victorians spent a lot of time thinking about things carnal--proving, of course, that what is repressed will be even more exciting once the corset is unlaced. In "Carnal Machines," D.L. King has curated stories by outstanding contemporary erotica writers who use the enthralling possibilities of the 19th century steam age to tease and titillate in a decadent fusing of technology and romance. In Teresa Noelle Roberts' "Human Powered," a widowed lady engineer invents a small device that can store the energy from sexual frustration to provide total satisfaction. Poe Von Page delights with a crew sailing the solar winds of space, in unusual service to their new captain in "Mutiny on the "Danika Blue." "Carnal Machines" takes you to another world filled with brothels, flying machines, steam-powered sex toys, manor houses and spiritualist societies--even Doctor Watson makes a house call. Fantastic, fantasy-filled and stoked to full power, "Carnal Machines" is a steamy read that guarantees many happy endings.

The stories all embody the genre perfectly. Each one shines as a glimpse into a Victorian world that might have been if things had gone just a wee bit differently and in some cases magically. The characters and worlds of the various authors pull you in so we

This is a wry, delightfully naughty collection that blends the exotic technology and pseudo-Victorian manners of steam punk with red-hot erotic fantasy. In Teresa Noelle Roberts' "Human Powered" a female professor of "arcane engineering" from Wellesley College designs a mechanism to capture sexual energy in order to replace dirty, polluting coal - then tests it with the help of an old friend and colleague from MIT. "The Servant Question" by Janine Ashbless gives us domestic robots, Victorian-style, hand-crafted and subject to a wide range of useful - um - customizations
