Spider detoured a bit from stories of Callahan's with a couple of novels about Mike's wife, Lady Sally McGee, who runs a 'house of good repute.' This one is told from the point of view of Maureen, rescued from the streets and not allowed to practice as an 'artist' until she's of age. And as long as a customer has good manners, Lady Sally doesn't care if he or she isn't human. ( )

A sequel of sorts to "Callahan and Company", this one set at Lady Sally's, a house of incredible repute, sort of the brothel eqivalent of Callahan's Crosstime Saloon, run by his wife. As outrageously bizarre and congenial as Callahan's, this is the first entry in the series that is a planned novel rather than a collection of contiguous short stories, and it works just fine, involving a young refugee from a nasty pimp who finds sanctuary at Lady Sally's, and an encounter with a rather nasty and scary hood named Tony Donuts... Not as ambitious as the "Callahan's" books, but equally enjoyable and well-conceived. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0441090737, Hardcover)

A HOUSE OF HEALTHY REPUTE...

Welcome to Lady Sally's, the House that is a home -- the internationally (hell, interplanetarily) notorious bordello. At Lady Sally's House, the customer doesn't necessarily come first: even the staff are genuinely enjoying themselves.

Wife of time traveling bartender Mike Callahan, and employer of some of the most unusual and talented performing artists ever to work in the field of hedonic interface, Her Ladyship has designed her House to be an "equal opportunity enjoyer," discreetly, tastefully and joyfully catering to all erotic tastes and fantasies, however unusual. Like her famous husband, Lady Sally doesn't even insist that her customers be human...as long as they have good manners.

Small wonder, then, that she and her staff encounter beings as unique and memorable as the superhuman Colt, whose banner never, ever flags...Diana, the deadly dominatrix who cannot be disobeyed...Tony Donuts, the moronic man-monster even the Mafia doesn't want to mess with...or Charles, the werewolf with a distinct difference...
