5.0

Smut Peddler returns, and zooms in the opposite direction of their previous collection, "My Monster Boyfriend," opting for scifi over fantasy. Although that isn't to say there aren't fantastic elements to this book. Most notably, "The Stuppa" by Harlotin straddles scifi and fantasy, evoking and poking "technology of the ancients."

My favorite has to be "Rendevouz with Ain." A spacefarer contacts a trapped AI, and goes out to rescue her, including uploading her into a brand-new body. The robot girl is just the CUTEST thing, and seeing her fall apart as she experiences physical sensations for the first time is just...A+.

For humor, the very first story hits the mark: "Vanilla Game" by Fiona Staples (recognizable for her artwork in Saga). A gamer gets a little hot under the controller for an NPC, and is delighted to find a mod to prove she's not the only one. The sex is brief in this one, but the point is more punchline than moneyshot.

Props to "Bodywork" by Amanda Lafrenais for proving that I may have additional kinks.
