Not as much action as the first book in the Spaceways series, OF ALIEN BONDAGE , as the focus switches to character and world building in the second installment. Both Corundum and Janja get plenty of page-time as you'd expect given the way OF ALIEN BONDAGE ended. Interestingly enough, Captain Jonuta, the slave-trader from OF ALIENT BONDAGE is cast in a new light as an 'almost good guy'.

If you want hardcore erotica this is pretty good, otherwise you might be offended.
