Erotic Slavehood. A Miss Abernathy Omnibus, by the legendary Christina Abernathy, is a well written book that no slave, submissive, Master or Owner should be without. I had always heard about “Training with Miss Abernathy” in the BDSM community, yet being out of print as a single book, I was unable to find it. EdenFantasys having the omnibus, which includes “Miss Abernathy's Concise Slave Training Manual” was a godsend! I read it straight through without stopping!

In the first portion, she allows that while everyone has different wishes about their own status in this community, there are things that should always be done, such as caring for one another, being consensual, and keeping one another safe. But she also takes time to explain to the slave reading his/her Master’s portion of the book, opening up shielded eyes to both worlds of the lifestyle. Any trainer, novice to old, can find something of use here.

The training portion of the manual she writes with the submissive-in-training in mind, as well as the ownerless submissive looking to train oneself. None of the lessons are harsh, cruel, demeaning, or misleading. She is precise in what she says, and gives extra reading to add to your learning. Some are simple, some are fun (whipped cream and fruit, naked, in an empty bathtub anyone?), and some are deeply thoughtful. Some relate simple recipes to share with your Owner, while others teach you to care for yourself above all things. In reading this, I have learned to believe in myself, that a submissive is indeed a gift, and her lessons on self-esteem are gratifying.

Being new to the full time lifestyle, it was amazing to us to have what we needed to have the lifestyle the way we wanted right at our finger tips! It even helps smooth that transition from part-time to full-time. We’ve even learned an easier way to stop and communicate with each other. It is definitely an eye-opener.

5 stars for quality, enlightenment, and content.
