Signal boosting

Amazon have pulled The Flesh Cartel #1: Capture from their shelves, stating that its content breaks their rules.

Which rules? These:

Pornography
We don't accept pornography or offensive depictions of graphic sexual acts.

Offensive Content
What we deem offensive is probably about what you would expect.


Well, that's super-clear. ::rolls eyes::

I've written to them to complain using this link:

This censorship is far from new for Amazon. In 2009 they quietly disappeared a number of books with gay content, including one of mine, until the resulting storm of protest made them back down.

Haimowitz and Belleau's story isn't for everyone. It's dark, disturbing, and brutal.

It's just not pornography or gratuitous.

And what I expect from Amazon is to be able to buy stuff from there.

That's it.

I can decide for myself where my limits lie, thank you very much.
