Matadora

Summary: Rate this book XXX for explicit sex scenes
Review: I found this book not only boring, but absolutely not suitable for anyone under 18 because of the (to me) gratuitis and explicit sex scenes involving, woman/woman, man/woman threesome, etc. I absolutely had no expectation of this when I began reading. Also, the book is very boring, very little in the way of any "action", mostly a lot of (I presume) the author's philosophy. I skimmed through to the end, in hopes of something interesting occuring, but to no avail. I will not buy any of his books in the future!!

Summary: Rate this book XXX for explicit sex scenes
Review: I'm really giving all 3 books in the series the same rating (not just Matadora)since the storyline and quality are pretty seamless across all 3. I simply cannot believe that these books are no longer in print! Martial arts, meditation, gizmos, weapons, revolution, politics, spirituality & sex. What more could you ask for in a series? Steve Perry writes tight, fast, action-packed science fiction. Yet the characters never suffer. The Matadora series gets my highest recommendation.

Summary: Saga continues-zen centered lesbian heroine leads the way!
Review: Perry continues to develope the character introduced in "The Man Who Never Missed" while continuing the theme of corrupt galactic government destruction by the Matador's. The insights into the psychic stresses and background of the heroine are particularly engaging. I am on my third reading of this series because of the depth of character development and the smooth transition of the content.

Summary: Welcome to Matador Villa.
Review: What do you do when you're one of the best martial artists in the universe, and that isn't enough anymore? You become a Matadora, one of the finest bodygaurds alive. Dirisha Zuri was introduced in The Man Who Never Missed as a bouncer and Musashi Flex player. She ends up at the Matador Villa, a school for elite bodyguards modeled after the rebel hero Khadaji, the Man Who Never Missed. Run by Pen(from The 97th Step), the school is also home to people Dirisha knew from the Jade Flower, the bar where she met Khadaji. The process of becoming a Matadora becomes a journey of self-discovery for her, and when the Confed shuts down the school and declares the Matadors traitors she has a mission: to rescue Pen, now held captive by the Confed.
