Review: The Auction by Kitty Thomas

 

 

 

 

DESCRIPTION:
Belle Walker lives in a strict society where women are treated as property, sold to the highest bidder soon after their eighteenth birthday. But the auction isn't the only danger. Though she's never seen them, she knows monsters live outside the city. These creatures have allowed the humans a small area to inhabit with the promise to leave them in peace as long as they never cross the boundary. On the day Belle is sold, one of the monsters breaks that promise and enters the city, intent on having her as his own.

**This book is intended for an adult audience and contains master/slave, multiple partners, girl on girl, alien sex, and oral play.**

*NO Spoilers

Kitty rocks! I just had to get that out the way. She just has a way with words and making such topics and genres not only amazingly compelling but unputdownable.

The Auction is a superb Dark Erotica Novella that I read in less than 1h and a half. Sexy, hot, creepy and arousing, all at the same time. I could have never told from the cover, but The Auction has some sci-fi elements, all of which just made the story that much richer. 

In The Auction we get introduced to Belle, while she is waiting to be sold to the highest bidder. In her world, women being sold and owned is a common thing, especially since she lives in a society that had to rebuild itself in another planet and has a quite different moral system then our own.

Unexpectedly, she gets bought by one of the local “monsters” and takes away from the only world she has ever known. With Master and Sir, she learns a lot about herself, pain, pleasure and life.

I loved how this time around the Master is literally from another planet, one of my favorite blogger made an excellent point by saying:

“I thought the inclusion of ‘monster masters’ was quite ingenious – so often in Kitty’s works the dominant (human) male is bordering on demonic (‘Comfort Food’, being a prime example). But in ‘The Auction’ the heroine’s sexual partners are, literally, monsters – and one of them even has a devilish resemblance. It’s a nice bit of fantasy to play with.” – ALPHA Reader

I totally agree with it and I think that The Auction just shows how awesome Kitty is and I have to say, I cannot wait to see what she comes up with next!
