Book Review
The following review was originally published by Tera on her Blog, A Succubi's Tale on February 15, 2026
A tale of the incubus, their form and power. What they offer and what they desire in return from both the willing and the unwise.
The work is an odd tale of what might be called experience, theory, myth and possibility which turns its attention towards the myths of the incubi. As it does so, the work turns upon itself, becoming very demanding of the reader, assumed to be a woman, and tells of what the incubus wills to be and how they will fall to them.
It’s not so much erotica, or horror as the book summary notes, than it is a series of collected thoughts cast into chapter and verse. I didn’t find much in the way of heat, some of the passages being so dearly clinical in tone, others trying to express a thought but not quite managing to get that sorted onto the page well. There’s an odd sense of this being something on the verge of a research paper with an erotic dominant edge overall.
That does work, to an extent, but at the same time it tends to drone on at points, the pressure cast by the narrative tone becomes stifling, at least to me. There’s no passion really in the telling, as for love, that simply does not exist. It’s a shame really that the work could not settle into a form and flow that remained constant throughout and didn’t shift back and forth from prose to poetry to clinical statement and back again.
Three out of five pitchforks.
It’s somewhere between a stream of consciousness, a collection of poems and a grouping of short stories. The tone and how the story carries itself is rather odd, but overall it’s an interesting work of what if’s and could be’s.
