Shadow of the Lash
from Shadow of the Lash
Bill Ward
For a time, Richard made his living by performing as a punished transvestite at Theatre de Sade. Anita paddled his pantied bottom while a rapt audience observed and told her what they wanted done to him.
When he met Claire, her deviant tastes were familiar, but their extreme dimensions exceeded anything he had known. She and cohort Dora have a couple of captive men on a secluded estate, and used them for their pleasure.
Claire and Dora bind and torture men in a graveyard, a bathtub, a bedroom, and a dungeon. They use ropes, chains, collars, dildos, crops, and shears.
The story mixes vivid episodes of sex and punishment ritual. While all female characters enjoy whipping and otherwise tormenting resident males, they're not averse to use them for pleasure, too. Some scenes depict enforced footwear and body worship.
The text has been completely re-set for the ebook version. Few changes were made to the detailed prose. 38,000 words.
The ebook has all content of the paper book, including covers. Ads placed at the end of the paperback are located at the end of the ebook.
Illustrations show rampant male enthusiasm (sheathed in stretched jockey shorts) for lovely females in sexy attire and high heels. The three female characters appear in stockings, garter belts, long gloves, shoes and boots. Costumes expose voluptuous pulchritude. Female nudity.
Tasty fetish features of the 16 dynamic images by the Great Bill Ward are repeated, enlarged, on separate pages. The ebook shows pictures on more than 40 pages, which provides the visual experience of optimized presentation.
Illustrations depict some incidents in the story and grand female figures of dominating characters. As permitted by story content, page sequence positions each picture close to related prose, but not every picture is described precisely. Some pictures do not relate to events in the story. Some events in the story do not appear in the pictures.
Brightness and contrast of images were adjusted.
All new scans.
Events are conformed to present scenes of wanton sensuality with clear fetish elements. The carefully-crafted prose and femdom theme render this volume an exceptional entry in the series.
The dominating beauties in high heels who function as protagonists in the scenario are typical Bizarre-Books sadists who demand hedonist treats and male humiliation. The ebook offers the most convenient mechanism for enjoying this rare artifact of 1970s fetish culture.
from The Bitch Goddess
Bill Ward
The Bitch Goddess
The story opens with these words:
“Carla Vickers was a Bitch Goddess, a sensationally voluptuous bitch goddess who was as adept at bondage as she was in the evil art of meting out terrible punishment to poor, unsuspecting males.”
Carla also hurts women when opportunity arises. Instruments of pain include cat, whip, quirt, rope, and thorny branches.
Sixteen pictures show Mr. Ward's female ideal, in high heels, long gloves and corsets.
Brightness and contrast were adjusted. All new scans.
