Description: Written by Layne West, The Shifting Sands: An Epic Tale of Ancient Erotic Intrigue, Romance and Adventure is an erotically charged fantasy novel about a past world that could have been, when monsters ravaged humanity. One female monster in particular has devoted herself to devouring humans engaged in sexual congress, so as to prevent procreation; other monsters specifically seek to castrate men and ingest their seed. Virile men are a rarity, women are desperate for sexual partners, the widowed Queen is losing her mind, and the human race is in imminent danger of extinction. Passion, excitement, courage, violence, and raw, dripping sensuality bring The Shifting Sands to a red-hot boil.
