Dan and J.D. are very respected educators in the kink community. Their service via classes and an informative website is known by many. This book is their first and features their expertise laid out in an understandable and easy-to-digest format.

The book includes step-by-step tutorials on over a dozen bondage ties and decorative knots. It also includes detailed information on rope types, scene setup, and safety. Even folks that are brand new to bondage can absorb the information in this book and start tying right away. The Knotty Boys are very sensitive to details and tend to include pictures that provide the intricacies of each step along with clear written instructions. More experienced bondage players will find the photographs inspirational and get new ideas for combinations of ties or different approaches to completing the same ties.

The book is well-designed with clean and easy-to-read type-face. The pictures are beautifully edited and composed while remaining instructional. The paperback binding is of good quality and stands up to being toted around in a toy bag.
