Yeah, it's a bad one.
The question is, is it bad enough?
Something like "[Otorongo is] a vehicle for sex scenes, described every which way and involving every imaginable orifice."
How 'bout "...copious amounts of sex."
I like the way "Third Chakra" is in quotation marks. I don't remember putting it in quotation marks. Anybody know what your Third Chakra is? Is it in quotation marks?
Anyway, this reviewer did not find what they were looking for. Doesn't know what a chakra is. Doesn't want to call porn what it is -- porn--but instead wants to call it "baffling" erotica. This is one of the toughest problems Otoronogo faces. It has to be called erotica, because porn actually doesn't exist as a literary genre (it's true -- there's an official list of about a hundred different categories of books, just fiction alone probably, with 10 or 15 kinds of erotica, but pornography is not in there). Otorongo is NOT erotica. It's PORN!
Oh, well. iUniverse told me from the beginning that they didn't do porn. Then they went ahead and did it, because they knew they could call it erotica, and they've made $15,000 off of me so far. We'll see who has the last laugh!
Sigh. I would like to say insulting things about this reviewer's cultural blinders and lack of intelligence, but I won't.
General question to all you SGers. Is there anything in this review that if you came across it on the cover of a book would turn you on? Get you interested? I've kind of been hoping for a negative review that would appeal to marginal, counter-culture folks (us), but I don't know.
How 'bout "Full of kooky characters and made-up worlds"
(Could do.)
Oh, one more thing. Does anyone know what group of people constitutes "erotica fans?"
