Here is the blurb:


Demonic Justice is like Cosmic Justice, just a little less... accurate.

Erotic Horror master M. E. Hydra returns with a seventh sizzling collection of short stories featuring sexy succubi and other monster girls.

“Outcall with a Succubus” sees an overworked politician receive a visit from an amorous guest. A man suffering from anxiety is prescribed an unusual vac-bed treatment in “Shiborito in the Bag”. A group of activists in “A Trial in Vennington” discover a succubus is not quite the instrument of feminist vengeance they hoped for. An arrogant mage in “Mage vs Succubus Slime” learns why it’s important to have a full party after he’s ensnared and drained of his levels by a special slime girl. And finally, “A Succubus for Social Justice” has a succubus used as a tool of assassination, until the wrong target is chosen...

Enjoy these and other dark tales of erotic evil. They’ll give you pleasures beyond your wildest dreams, and terrors beyond your darkest nightmares...


It's a weird book. The central framing story, "A Succubus for Social Justice", is a multi-part novella. Each part is a separate short story of a different protagonist being hunted down by the nameless succubus from the succubus tablet.

However, the other short stories also serve to introduce characters that appear in the central story, or start threads that are continued in later stories. Technically, each functions as a standalone story, but they are all part of a larger story.

That makes the collection somewhere in between a standard short story collection and a classic fix-up novel.

There are some pretty big lore moments, especially in the "A Succubus for Social Justice" stories.  The finale in particular has some surprise connections and hints of connections.

Anyway, two weeks, and then you'll be able to read them yourselves. I'll be teasing with various excerpts over those two weeks to hype things up.

I'm also looking into getting a print version ready for this one. Unfortunately, print versions are usually a little expensive for print-on-demand books (about $20 for a paperback) and the formatting is a lot fiddlier. I'm doing my research and hoping to get that ready to release at the same time. I can't guarantee on that. Creating a manuscript for an ebook is a doddle. Creating a manuscript for a print book is a... headache.

I hope you enjoy the book when it comes out.
