Review title: Only one readable story but that's a splendid one! Product review: Most of the stories in this book are a total waste, trying to use S&M; (which I usually have no objection to unless it's gratuitous and emotionless as presented here) instead of good writing and logical plots to carry the story."Ecstasy" is just plain silly with a smirking "hero" who fakes submission in an implausible, female-dominated society. "Bound and Determined" had too many nasty moments where the two protagonists snipped and snarled at each other; I got tired of them both. "Dark Desires" had a few steamy moments but neither character was believable or likable.However, the last one "A Lady's Pleasure" by Robin Schone was worth the price of admission - glorious, erotic sex with passionate characters you really care about and wish well. This one rates 5 stars, the others are just goofy trash.Buy this book used or borrow it. It's mostly going to be a waste of your time, your money and your patience.

Review title: Good old Mafalda Product review: The animation is poor (consistent with the latinoamerican animation of that time). There is not a consistent story or plot. It is more like the best Mafalda cartoons, now animated!
