About the author
Graham Masterton
393 books2,026 followersGraham Masterton was born in Edinburgh in 1946. His grandfather was Thomas Thorne Baker, the eminent scientist who invented DayGlo and was the first man to transmit news photographs by wireless. After training as a newspaper reporter, Graham went on to edit the new British men's magazine Mayfair, where he encouraged William Burroughs to develop a series of scientific and philosophical articles which eventually became Burroughs' novel The Wild Boys.
At the age of 24, Graham was appointed executive editor of both Penthouse and Penthouse Forum magazines. At this time he started to write a bestselling series of sex 'how-to' books including How To Drive Your Man Wild In Bed which has sold over 3 million copies worldwide. His latest, Wild Sex For New Lovers is published by Penguin Putnam in January, 2001. He is a regular contributor to Cosmopolitan, Men's Health, Woman, Woman's Own and other mass-market self-improvement magazines.
Graham Masterton's debut as a horror author began with The Manitou in 1976, a chilling tale of a Native American medicine man reborn in the present day to exact his revenge on the white man. It became an instant bestseller and was filmed with Tony Curtis, Susan Strasberg, Burgess Meredith, Michael Ansara, Stella Stevens and Ann Sothern.
Altogether Graham has written more than a hundred novels ranging from thrillers (The Sweetman Curve, Ikon) to disaster novels (Plague, Famine) to historical sagas (Rich and Maiden Voyage - both appeared in the New York Times bestseller list). He has published four collections of short stories, Fortnight of Fear, Flights of Fear, Faces of Fear and Feelings of Fear.
He has also written horror novels for children (House of Bones, Hair-Raiser) and has just finished the fifth volume in a very popular series for young adults, Rook, based on the adventures of an idiosyncratic remedial English teacher in a Los Angeles community college who has the facility to see ghosts.
Since then Graham has published more than 35 horror novels, including Charnel House, which was awarded a Special Edgar by Mystery Writers of America; Mirror, which was awarded a Silver Medal by West Coast Review of Books; and Family Portrait, an update of Oscar Wilde's tale, The Picture of Dorian Gray, which was the only non-French winner of the prestigious Prix Julia Verlanger in France.
He and his wife Wiescka live in a Gothic Victorian mansion high above the River Lee in Cork, Ireland.

I picked this book up at a church garage sale for 50 cents. The main reason I decided to buy it was because there was a handwritten letter tucked inside, dated 3-21-01, from a woman basically telling off the man to whom it was written.
UPDATE: This book is part sexual how-to manual and part masturbatory aid. Not only does the author give the (presumably male) reader tips on pleasing female sex partners, he also includes enough “true” sexy stories to give the (presumably male) reader ample opportunity to jerk off while learning. (I say “true” sexy stories because I found a sameness to the testimonials. Perhaps the author made them up himself? It seems to me that too many of the women quoted refer to their “bottoms.”)
Early in the book (in Chapter 1, “Are You the Best Lover She’s Ever Had?”) there is a twenty question quiz the (presumably male) reader can take to determine his love-making prowess. I think that’s a good way to start, as many men probably think they are great in bed when they’re really not. (Of course, a man who already thinks he is great in bed would probably never pick up this or any other sexual self-help manual.)
Throughout this book, the author spends a lot of time reassuring the reader that it’s fine if both sex partners don’t climax at the same time, yet he also spends a lot of time telling the reader how to time intercourse so both sex partners do climax at the same time. It’s a bit confusing. It doesn’t matter if you do, he says, but goes on to explain, here’s how to do it. If it doesn’t matter if we do, why teach us how to do it and suggest that we practice?
In Chapter 6, “The E-Technique—How to Fine Tune Your Climax,” the author explains his technique for speeding up or slowing down the male orgasm. (I presume it’s the author’s technique because he doesn’t credit anyone else.) Basically, he suggests men learn how to orgasm through fantasy alone, with no physical stimulation of the genitals. Once a man is able to do this, he should be able to speed up or slow down his approach to orgasm during intercourse according to how close his female partner is to her own climax. In reality, the author is claiming that in order to drive a woman wild in bed, a man should fantasize about a sexual encounter other than the one he is actually having. This idea seems a little weird to me.
However, much of the advice given in this book does seem sensible to me. In Chapter 7 “From Opening Line to Opening Thighs…How to Get a Woman into Bed,” Masterton recommends men sport clean, well kempt hair; trimmed and clean nails; and minimal jewelry. He also recommends men shave and shower regularly and keep their genital and anal areas “scrupulously clean.” He also suggests men avoid “arrogant, over-the-top come-on lines.”
In Chapter 3 “What Does Your Woman Expect to Get Out of You in Bed?,” Masterton claims to have talked to over five hundred American women of varied ages about what they expected from men during sex. He arranged the responses in a “Top Ten, according to the number of women who chose a particular sexual asset.” He gives a brief explanation of each asset. From 1 to 10, here’s the list: “kissing, talking, caressing, playing, climax, oral sex, good solid f***ing, body language, afterplay, and morning glory.”
I do think the author makes a lot of assertions about women wanting men to take charge during sex without offering any proof. Is this what the over 500 American women told him? Is this his own idea?
I don’t know that I would actually recommend this book. I think there are a lot better sex advice books on the shelves, like The Good Vibrations Guide to Sex. But this one actually wasn’t terrible. Not great, but not awful.
