Interplanetary Slave: Arcada of Balinth

Interplanetary Slave #0.5

by Tasha Temple

In the planetary star system Ecryon, sexual enslavement of women is a way of life. Terenth, heir to the Ecryon realm, attends an auction with his childhood friend, Jaxx, to acquire his very first slave without his father’s help. Terenth’s ownership of his chosen slave, Arcada, will ultimately prove rewarding and challenging to them both.

This is a short (1900 word) introduction of how Terenth and Arcada first met and the circumstances of the very beginning of her ownership. Their story continues twelve years later in INTERPLANETARY Arcada of Ecryon. That full-length novel explores what occurs when Terenth becomes angry with Arcada and sends her to Earth to face unknown dangers. That novel contains explicit sexual passages and adult content, unlike this introduction.

Short story, 10 pages.

The problem with this short story is that it didn't really make me want to buy the full length book about Arcada. I see that other people have rated it low too and I think what might be the problem is that if you're going to have a teaser then it has to have more meat and at 10 pages this was gristle and bone. If the author would have made this short story longer, the ratings might have been higher.

There really isn't much to say about this one... really it's just a few pages showing how Arcada became the slave of Terenth. I plan to read the next book which is actually a novel and is their story.

Not a bad start into this new storyline. I was intrigued, so I bought the follow-up book to this sort prequel.
