Venomous By Penelope Fletcher


Venomous is a tricky one to classify as there are so many genres that it can fit into: Science Fiction, Romance, Erotica, and Menage just to name a few.






Lumen Young is a twenty three year old woman formarly from Earth, that was until she was kidnapped by aliens and sold into intergalactic slavery. Considered weak and useless by the L'Odo, a lizard like alien race they toss Lumen to the slaves as a prize in a fight to the death.

Venomous One was once a fierce warrior of his people the Ra until his ship was attacked by space pirates known as the Dei San. Venomous One has spent many years held captive as a slave forced to fight in gladiator type events when not working in the mines.

The second Lumen is tossed to the slaves Venomous knows that she is meant to be his.

From the start there are challenges to over come, some as simple as a language barrier on through a space pirate attack, other males and a home world closed to strangers.

The Ra are born gender neutral and do not mature into a specific sex until they meet their soul mate, it is their other half that awakens their gender and sexuality. Lumen soon finds her self with more than one Ra awakened and fighting for her favor.

Lumen starts as an average earth woman who is soon shaped by a variety of events that could break anyone's ability to survive. Rather than crumble under the weight of said events Lumen soon blossoms into so much more than just a survivor and become a warrior in her own right.

Ms. Fletcher weaves a wonderfully detailed world with a variety of different species and cultures. Even at 600+ pages you will wish for more and be sad to come to the end. One can only hope that Ms. Fletcher is currently working on a second book.
