"A Succubus for Freedom" is available to pre-order

Less problems at Amazon this time, so I'm actually able to promote an upcoming book in a more organised fashion.  My 4th short story collection, A Succubus for Freedom and other tales of Obscene Orgies is coming back as an ebook.  It's available to pre-order at various places.

Here is the obligatory blurb:

You can’t escape...  You won’t want to escape...

Succubi and other monstrous femme fatales abound in M. E. Hydra’s fourth collection of wild, warped and wickedly dark erotica.  Lie back and enjoy as alluring sirens ensnare helpless prey in thirteen weird tales of sex and horror.

A drummer’s plans to separate his mother from her boring partner go horribly awry when he asks “A Succubus for Freedom”.  An arrogant massage parlour reviewer is taught a lesson by a creature of myth in “Naga Massage Review”.  In “Come on the Candle” a student upset over a recent breakup summons a succubus during an arcane rite of cleansing.  A young man discovers “What Bad Boys Get For Christmas” after he is abducted by some extremely naughty elves.  “Riding the Medusa” details an unorthodox and risky form of recreation for bored soldiers stationed in an adjacent dimension.  And finally, a shy man in his thirties finds his virginity and more under threat after he’s “Locked in with a Succubus”.

You will be surprised, shocked and aroused by these and other tales of dark temptresses.  They'll give you pleasures beyond your wildest dreams, and terrors beyond your darkest nightmares...

As you've probably figured out, I am in the process of republishing my old short story collections with new covers and an afterword offering some behind-scenes information on the stories.

While most of the stories can be found in some form up on Literotica, these are the finalised versions (after a good edit) and some stories, like the eponymous "A Succubus for Freedom", can only be found in this collection.

The official (re)publication date is Friday next week (26th Aug).  I hope people have fun reading the collection then!

"A Succubus for Halloween" is out!

It's publication day! (Or rather, second publication day).

My 3rd erotic horror short story collection, A Succubus for Halloween and other tales of Terrifying Temptresses, is now available as an ebook.

Here's the obligatory blurb:

Tempting, wanton, enticing, gorgeous... lethal.

Halloween is a time for chills and thrills.  A time for femme fatales to sharpen their claws and take to the night in search of fresh prey.  Cuddle up in front of an open fire as M. E. Hydra brings you a delectable dirty dozen tales of ravishing succubi and other sensual predators.

A man uses a succubus as instrument of revenge in “A Succubus for Halloween”.  An unusual treatment for claustrophobia is prescribed in “Naga Special Massage”.  In “The Pearls of the Mediterranean” a group of holidaying lads discover an exotic nudist beach with a secret.  Things get wet and slippery while “Oil Wrestling a Succubus”.  Against a backdrop of demonic invasion, a soldier is subjected to the fleshy pleasures of “Capramendes, the Milkmaid”.  And finally, a doctor finds a sexy supernatural companion for “A Halloween Party with a Succubus”.

Sit back and enjoy these and other tales of weird, wanton and wicked temptresses.  They’ll give you pleasures beyond your wildest dreams, and terrors beyond your darkest nightmares...

This is a republication of the title I had out through Excessica.  Sadly, Excessica is no more, so I'm putting the old books back up under my own author account.  To mark the occasion I've redone the cover and added an afterword with some commentary on the stories.  If you have the original you probably don't need to get this, but I'm not going to turn down the extra royalties if someone wants to pick it up to help me out.

Because I get questions asking if these are just the same stories that are up on Literotica.  Some are originally from there, but the collections also contain stories that are exclusive to them and can't be found anywhere else.  There are 5 exclusives in this one.  "Oil Wrestling a Succubus" features some sexy femdom oil wrestling and links a couple of plotlines to my mobster character, Koontz (You'll also see the succubus from this in HoHH soon, hopefully).  "Serving the Earth Mother" is quite possibly one of the grosser stories I've written (and probably wouldn't be allowed up on Literotica!).  Of most interest will likely be the Nicole story, "A Halloween Party with a Succubus".

Anyway, it's out and I hope you all have fun reading it!
