Why read on Fable?
Publisher Description
A violent and sexy thriller – but then, it is about the internet porn industry. Russell James is 'not only a connoisseur of fear and menace,' said the Erotic Review, 'he would have us look at this unconsoled and unconsoling world and see its twisted charms.'
The book raises an interesting question – one that few present-day authors dare to ask: is commercial sex harmless? How about other commercially driven hobbies, like gambling and drug use – are they harmless too? They were once thought decadent and degrading, but now they're everyday. We have become sophisticated. We're smart. We're not laughing at the flames that engulf Rome. This book, said the Literary Review, is 'a busy, bruising thriller that gives the lowdown on Britain's thriving porn industry, now masterminded by gangland families who deftly deal in call girls, Internet sex and deep blue movies, the high spots of which include rape and sudden death.' It cries out to be read.
