This was the most distasteful book I have ever read. It was so disturbing and perverse that I could not finish it. I don't understand why anyone would want to be treated less than human. I felt there was something seriously wrong with Maia to allow Anders to treat her that way.
First of why would anybody want to be a slave, sexual or otherwise. My feeling is to round them all up ship them to the Middle East and check back with them a year later to see if they are still ok with it.
The humiliation, debasement, degradation and mutilation Maia endured were disgusting. Anders treated her like and animal and I never felt he cared for her at all. If you get off on treating another human being or an animal this way then there is something mentally wrong with you. You can call it power exchange if you want. The book made it sound that that Maia and Anders had a relationship and I just could not see it. It seemed that Anders could not decide whether he wanted her to be his dog or his pony. He takes her for a walk like a dog and also has her pull a cart as a pony while he and his also screwed up friends were in the cart.
The book made it sound that both wanted this relationship this way. Well our prisons are full with people who wanted, needed and were born feeling this way.
As far as I am concerned Maia would have benefited more from psychiatric care then allowing Anders to use her for his sadistic outlet.
