Alyx

This is a story of white slavery in the Caribbean. Simon has spent ten years in slavery after being kidnapped and sold by his uncle for his title. The first 5 years are brutal; the next 5 he has spent as a breeder. He spends his nights in a pitch black hut with a woman slave until she is impregnated; then another, etc. He never sees the women. When their babies are born they are given to another to suckle and the women are given another’s baby to suckle; then sent back to a breeding hut, but not to the same man. Alyx is 16 and a virgin when she comes to the hut, fighting and screaming. Over the time they spend together they develop a bond and then love. The story follows their lives over the next 5 years. This book was published in show more 1977 and typical of the romances at that time. This has a following but I really didn’t find it outstanding. show less

I absolutely love this unique novel. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because I was a little disappointed with the rushed ending. You can read my review here:
