Bruce King's exciting story of a handsome young “leather boy” driven to the incredible excesses of sexual masochism is the only book I've run across—in the enormous volume of recent sex fiction—which documents honestly and vividly the hows and whys of the pain-pleasure world of the homosexual. This twilight world of leather and chains, boots and whips is illuminated with intelligence and vigor; orgiastic pain, fetishism and fantasy blend in a nightmare collage. The sex rituals are skillfully built up—the reader is bound to participate!
