Summary: Timeless Tales review
Review: By TT reviewer Amy L. TurpinMarty Matthews is the stereotypical feminist of the 1960's. Ok, she actually IS a 1960's feminist, pantyhose flinging and bra burning included. When she is somehow catapulted through dimensions and time, she finds herself in a place where male-dominated societies don't exist. GROOVY! Well, except in other areas of the galaxy, where there tend to be some seriously huge alpha-type males. When the village where she lives with her new feminist-from-hell friends is approached by a group of some of the males in question, she unwisely takes to taunting them with crude gestures and insulting names. Not very smart when you stand around five foot six and the leader of these warriors is somewhere in the neighborhood of seven and a half feet tall! Alas, poor Marty sometimes lets her overconfidence get the better of her and soon finds herself within the harem of the pig. Definitely not groovy! Kil Q'an Tal had only intended to approach the women warriors of Wani with the intention of asserting his claim as king of this sector of the galaxy. He had no intention of making war with them for his warriors would never hurt a woman, even in battle. What he did was make war with them simply to gain another bound servant, and a woman who would become the center of his world against his will. For the life of him, he can't figure out why that this woman has him so "bedeviled" when his first encounter with her had her screaming obscenities from the shoulders of a warrior woman from Wani. Wanting her more than anything he has ever experienced, Kil is determined she will be his and his alone--she will never pleasure any of his warriors, as is the custom. Which really should have been a clue. Within the harem, Marty makes a friend who is about to be released from service. Telling her friend about her growing feelings for their master, knowing there can never be anything between a bondservant and the king, Marty convinces Ora to help her escape. Fleeing King Kil doesn't do much good, however, because the unsuspecting Marty is carrying his child. Realizing his mistake, Kil goes on his bride quest. He has already lost one woman he loved before he expressed his feelings, he's not about to do so again. But if he finds her, can she ever forgive him? Kil has been my favorite character from the start of this series and the hunt for his Sacred Mate was everything I hoped it would be! The imagination in introducing so many different women from different walks of current Earth society is brilliant and thus far, Ms. Black has yet to disappoint! Again, this tale is filled with erotic, vivid imagery that is simply dazzling. Undeniably a must-read, unquestionably a keeper! Definitely groovy!

Summary: You're kidding me right?
Review: I don't know...it was just a tad unbelievable that a person who was interested in feminist rights and stayed with a warrior tribe of women would lose her complete mind and accept all of the sharing going on at the Conjugial Ceremonies. ...

Summary: I do enjoy these books but...
Review: I have grown very fond of this series of books & have been waiting to read Kill's story with anticipation. On Kill & Marty's story alone I would have given it 5 stars. It is very funny in parts, which had me in stitches. I'm glad to see Marty standing up to Kil. Telling him no in her own way.
The down part for me has nothing to do with Kill & Marty, but his nieces predicament. At the end of this book we have Dari who is 14 years old being sent away to live with her future sacred mate & his parents because she has caused him embarrasement. She cannot see her family only if her future sacred mate allows it. She has to live with him for 11 years before he can claim her. The scene with her parents after being told of her punishment was heart-breaking. I cannot believe Zor agreed to Gio's petition to have Dari removed from her parents home & into his custody. What kind of man does that to his own brother? With brothers like that who needs enemies.

Summary: Look Out Johanna Lindsey!
Review: I love Johanna Lindsey's "Warriors" series (Warrior's Woman, Keeper of the Heart, and Heart of a Warrior). This book is also part of a series (Trek Mi Q'an) and it's got a story line that will suck you in and leave you wanting more. Plus it's got hot and steamy love scenes aplenty! I highly recommend this book and the others in this series. YUMMY!

Summary: ROMANTICA at its BEST!
Review: If you've been reading Jaid Black's TREK MI Q'AN series, you'll be thrilled with this latest installment. And if you haven't experienced this series yet, try it, you'll LOVE it. Jaid Black writes the best of that fairly new genre, ROMANTICA, a delicious blend of erotica and romance. No one does it better. She'll scorch you with the erotic elements and leave you sighing blissfully over the romances between her characters. Every book in the series has several romantic relationships simmering and boiling in different stages, kind of a several-for-the-price-of-one deal. Black does a great job of weaving the various couples into each new story, revisiting familiar faces and always introducing new ones. She sets up the next installment in the series superbly, so that even though you're more than satisfied with the ending of the current romance, you're fully charged and rarin' to go on to the next. The only problem with this is waiting until the next one is released! Once you've gotten a taste of Black's futuristic world of Tryston and its sexual delights, believe me, you'll be hooked. In my opinion, ENSLAVED is the best book in the series, with a fabulous emotional depth. But then, Black keeps improving upon fantastic with each new book, so who knows what the next one will bring? I can't wait to find out.

Summary: Best of the series so far
Review: Jaid Black has written 7 stories in the Trek Mi Q'an series (if you include her contribution to an anthology and her novella). All are set in a futuristic fantasy world where the heros are stunningly handsome and always randy, but devoted to their mate. Pure fantasy. Each of the stories revolves around the discovery and union of the true mates. The writing is for adults only but not only are the stories romantic and erotic, but they're funny! Enslaved is best read after reading book 1 in the series, The Empress' New Clothes, and book 2, No Mercy, because it all builds up the hero, Kil, the most emotionally tortured of the Trek Mi Q'an heroes. His angst is contrasted with the plucky heroine, Marty, whose feminist views and attempts to "subvert the dominant paradigm" - the arrogant and too macho men of Trek Mi Q'an - result in a hot and hilarious romance. A great read for a multitude of reasons, but beware, if you read one Jaid Black, you'll want to read them all.

When she is somehow catapulted through dimensions and time, she finds herself in a place where male-dominated societies don't exist. GROOVY!

When the village where she lives with her new feminist-from-hell friends is approached by a group of some of the males in question, she unwisely takes to taunting them with crude gestures and insulting names. Not very smart when you stand around five foot six and the leader of these warriors is somewhere in the neighborhood of seven and a half feet tall! Alas, poor Marty sometimes lets her overconfidence get the better of her and soon finds herself within the harem of the pig. Definitely not groovy! Kil Q'an Tal had only intended to approach the women warriors of Wani with the intention of asserting his claim as king of this sector of the galaxy. He had no intention of making war with them for his warriors would never hurt a woman, even in battle. What he did was make war with them simply to gain another bound servant, and a woman who would become the center of his world against his will. For the life of him, he can't figure out why that this woman has him so "bedeviled" when his first encounter with her had her screaming obscenities from the shoulders of a warrior woman from Wani. Wanting her more than anything he has ever experienced, Kil is determined she will be his and his alone--she will never pleasure any of his warriors, as is the custom. Which really should have been a clue. Within the harem, Marty makes a friend who is about to be released from service. Telling her friend about her growing feelings for their master, knowing there can never be anything between a bondservant and the king, Marty convinces Ora to help her escape. Fleeing King Kil doesn't do much good, however, because the unsuspecting Marty is carrying his child. Realizing his mistake, Kil goes on his bride quest. He has already lost one woman he loved before he expressed his feelings, he's not about to do so again. But if he finds her, can she ever forgive him? Kil has been my favorite character from the start of this series and the hunt for his Sacred Mate was everything I hoped it would be!
