"The Tasting" by A Pulp Fan (sexy romp) 10, 10, 10
"The Tasting" by A Pulp Fan (pulpfan@anon.nymserver.com). Guest review by Sven the Elder. I have to be truthful and admit that I am not a follower of some of the more obscure genres of story that get published in our community. By and large many do not do a lot for me, and I'm afraid that as a result I don't tend to either download or read them. From time to time though, I do read some stories by authors that I would not normally consider. "The Tasting" by A Pulp Fan comes under that heading. I am not sure why I chose to download and have a look; but I did, and I am glad I did so. This is a delightful ramble through a well constructed scenario. The prose is good, tight and properly fabricated, this is an English essay that, but for it's subject matter, would gain an A or A+ within any writing group. The story starts with the narrator muttering about being dragged along to a wine tasting by his girlfriend. Her boss is filthy rich and "he had made most of his fortune the old fashioned way -- he inherited it" A line I rather liked. Our Hero becomes bored and wanders off into the grounds of the mansion and is waylaid, in all sorts of senses of the word, by a relative of the owner. She takes him round the estate and to parts of the house, and her, that he had not envisaged covering. We finish up with a twist or two based on the title of the piece. This is a well-crafted and erotic story that will bring a gentle smile to your face, and a healthy glow to other parts of the anatomy. Well worth the download and read of this author's first foray away from his normal writing. I hope it will not be his last.
