The companion volume to the provocative Alien Sex anthology, Off Limits pushes boundaries with 20 stimulating tales of otherworldly encounters.

This second volume of the Alien Sex anthology series brings together authors Neil Gaiman, Robert Silverberg, Samuel R. Delany, Joyce Carol Oates, Elizabeth Hand, and many others to explore the mysteries of sex, alien and human alike. From an alien spy who falls in love with one of the earthlings he's monitoring to a woman whose souvenir dream catcher calls to her bedroom more than she bargained for to a genetically engineered sex object aboard a space station, these thought-provoking tales of alien sex open up new worlds for fantastical exploration.

I struggled a bit with this book due to the narration. The narrator sounded very angry throughout. Very clipped and simply angry. I found myself wondering what I'd done wrong to her.

Narrator made this difficult to listen to.

Seriously, I know how you found it and I know you'll hate it, I did.
It's nothing more than a collection of rambling abstractions that'll leave you confused and frustrated. Also, the narrator just doesn't "fit", wrong voice for this drivel and tries to put too much weight/meaning/power into every word she pounds out. You'd think the phrase "then, she lightly butters the toast only on one side." was of supreme importance the way she tries to speak. Far too "heavy"!
No, trust me, save yourself the money/credits, you'll hate it!

You won't like it!
