About this listen

In the final volume of Anne Rice's erotic trilogy, Beauty's adventures on the dark side of sexuality make her the bound captive of an Eastern Sultan and a prisoner in the exotic confines of the harem. As this voluptuous adult fairy tale moves toward conclusion, all of Beauty's encounters with myriad variations of sexual fantasy are presented in a sensuous, rich prose that intensifies this exquisite rendition of Love's secret world and makes the Beauty series an incomparable study of erotica. In it, Anne Rice makes the forbidden side of passion a doorway into the hidden regions of the psyche and the heart.

Ok…So at first I was so not into the constant butt whooping. But after the first book, I really enjoyed the intimacy scenes. And it’s almost like I got used to it, just like the slaves. Interesting story. Different from anything else. Erotic fiction for the win!

Just Wow

FIRST OF ALL, IF YOU ARE AN ANNE RICE FAN OR THE FAN OF EROTICA YOU ARE IN THE RIGHT PLACE. IF YOU HAVE TO BE WARNED THAT AN EROTIC ADULT FICTION WITH THE TITLE "BEAUTY'S PUNISHMENT" MIGHT CONTAIN TRIGGERS, WELL YOU DEAR MAY BE IN THE WRONG PLACE UNLESS YOUR PSYCHOTHERAPY INCLUDES SUBMERSING YOUR SELF IN ALL THINGS SEX POSITIVE. YOU MY DEAR WILL NEED SENSITIVITY TRAINING, FOR YES SOME OF US FIND TO MADE UNCOMFORTABLE IS A PLEASURE, AND YES SOMETIMES WHAT MAKES AN ACT TABOO ALSO SOMETIMES MAKES IT EROTIC. OR AS A WISE PODCASTER ONCE SAID "DON'T YUCK SOMEONE ELSE'S YUM"

I loved the different voices and how well they caught each of the characters different personalities. My favorite was the woman she had the most emotion for the characters and made you feel like you were watching a video in your mind. The guy had that at times but sometimes his voice drowned out some causing me to lose interest but he would add influx in his pitch and I would regain focus to his words again. Aside from the voices the story is amazing. It’s not just because it’s erotica it’s the depth of the content. It’s so tantalizing that you wish you could experience it just once for your self. I really implore everyone to read these stories.

Loved the story and the voices fit well with the different characters.

This was the best of the three. Far less formulaic than the first two. It also had the most clear agency of the characters. Overall I'm glad to be at the end of the series. The characters were compelling enough I had to finish the series. That said, I wouldn't recommend it unless you're really into spanking, whipping and pony play. There is too much non-consent and loss of agency for me to enjoy the series. Also the first two books had a surprising lack of aftercare. I feel like there is a dangerous chance people would take this as a guide or relationship template rather than the pure fantasy it is.

Nice conclusion to the series... didn't love it.

I loved the book. Anne Rice did an excellent job with writing this book, keeping with Beauty's journey and she was excellent with being so descriptive, making you feel like you were part of the story.
