AFRICANUS PART II: Ritual of Pain by Geoffrey Allen [Silver Moon]

Africanus, a beautiful black slavegirl, has escaped the brutality of the gladiator arena of Imperial Rome, but her ship is wrecked far to the north and she finds herself a prisoner of the fierce Celts. These warriors lose no time taking advantage of every orifice she has. At one point, they wager whether she can take 100 men, one after another, in a single evening. But that's not the worst. She's forced to fight before jeering crowds. She's savagely whipped. And most ominously, she earns the hatred of the High Priestess herself. Indeed, it seems as if all the dominant Masters and Mistresses of this treacherous land are intent on torturing Africanus' helpless body. 237 pp.
