i only got a couple of chapters into it. if you're looking for sexual perversity involving the degradation of an ancient slave girl, as well as a present day story about a young, beautiful, insecure student whose creepy professor is lusting after her, and a female teacher (yes, another "romantic" triangle from carol goodman, and another forum to show off boring mythological knowledge) who also has the hots for that same male professor. . . .
this book is for you.
