This is going to be a re-read for me. I have read this series, Water Lovers of Sirilon such a long time ago before I joined GR. And the 3rd book, [b:Dead to the World|2015624|Dead to the World (Water Lovers of Sirilon #3)|L.E. Bryce|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1349033576s/2015624.jpg...
I confess: the title of this book confounds me. It's strangely fitting - my dubious interpretation being that it describes the state of the main character (Erred) throughout nearly the entire book - but at the same time, it's an incredibly odd thing to allude to in a book title. What it does do, how...
5 stars. I love a good m/m slave fic and this one did not disappoint. Well-written and pushed all the right buttons. N.B. This is not a book 3 but a stand-alone novel.Erred is a beautiful young man captured into slavery and subjected to the whims of a succession of masters. He is also a 'taleve,' se...
I fucking hate this book. Are you kidding me? This thing's only maybe an HFN at best.Gah. Why couldn't they get happy endings?I mean, okay, maybe they can work something out now and shit. But come on. So much meaningless suffering...Yeah, yeah; "the meaning of living came only when one was strugglin...
I really like Elisa's review, so I am not going to say much.The story is slow moving and very tamed, there is very little angst and not much sex (always a plus, the way I see it). It's about emotional recovery of an abused concubine, who lost not only his patrons, but also his friends simply by stan...

It's a fantasy story with supernatural events but with such a refreshing storyline. Out of this world kind of special. Amazing world building with interesting culture and beliefs. It contains tons of noncon. Listing a few here:- kidnapping, slavery with pleasure slave training, slave ownership excha...
DNF after reading at least 3/4 of the book. Couldn't bring myself to continue when I realized that the MC existence would continue in its bleakness, with no HEA or even a HFN. I need happiness, dammit!
