A masterpiece of modern Victoriana, blending ribald action, note-perfect language, and Wellsian steampunkish mad science into a stimulating blend of erotic literature.
Daedalus Tesla just wants to be left to his scientific research. The problem is, his Ontological Engine can only be powered by a human being in a state of extreme sexual excitement. And once you have one or t ...more

This is seriously my kind of smut: a wide variety of utterly perverse situations, actual plots, and a narrative voice straight out of the period in which the book is set (why yes, I have read more than my fair share of Victorian porn: want to make something of it?).

So, a few weeks ago, I reviewed Fantastic Erotica: The Best of Circlet Press 2008-2012. My only complaint, really, was that the sex itself was pretty plain vanilla.
Following my review, one of the authors in the collection sent me a message suggesting his own The Erotofluidic Age as a rather kinkier alternative. Of course, I had to take him up on his suggestion.
Structurally, the book is basically three linked novellas, and this serves the stories fine. But you don't care about that! You want to k ...more

What I find hottest in pornographic writing is perspective, pure and simple: I want to know what it's like to be someone else, to fuck someone else, to desire someone (or something) else.
With this book, I got what I wanted: Vinne Tesla's Erotofluidic Age captured my imagination, pinned it down, and did completely unspeakable and filthy things to it. The sexual scenes in the book are wildly varied -- from gender-bending gentleman's club dungeons to enthusiastic & mad scientists -- and I did ...more

A very brisk read.
Upon completion of this book I set it off to the side and stared vacantly in the distance asking myself, "what in the ____ did I read?!" Not saying I disliked it, on the contrary I thought the book was splendid, but it's certainly a mind-f&ck. Also, there are certain parts I found particularly cringe-worthy, but I'll let them slide without mention.

Marvelous! In the original sense of the word, meaning full of near-miraculous events and surprising twists. Original, imaginative and delightfully perverse. If you like steam punk erotica, try Vinnie Tesla's variant. It makes much of the competition seem dull by comparison.
There are three connected novellas in The Erotofluidic Age, focused primarily around the same cast of characters. Daedalus Tesla (yes, of course he's related to Nikola Tesla), mad scientist and ontological pioneer, uses sexual energy to power the machines he uses in his experiments. Not his own, of course; like his famous relative, Daedalus prefers celibacy, so he needs lusty volunteers. Unfortunately, the ontological forces aren't always predictable, and Victorian attitudes towards sex add thei

Vinnie Tesla won me over. I went into this book expecting to hate it but over time I found myself begrudgingly enjoying the story. And parts of it were actually funny! The smarmy writing style is really hard to take initially. I thought the author's treatment of the genderqueer violas was really well done. Some of the strange sex scenes such as the geoduck scene or the animated strap-on scene seemed like they were just put in there to impress you with their strangeness. Okay, Mr. Tesla.
