In general anything by Anya Merchant,

What are you talking about, Bruce Sentar is doing good work, his recent Dungeon Diving 101 series not only provides a decent read, but also appears to not suffer from harem creep. His Saving Supervillains in particular is a good story, even if you disregard harem elements. Arand's last work (Save State Superhero) was an utter trash exemplifying all the worst qualities of his writing. His System Overclocked was decent exploration of semi-erotica+sci-fi idea, though. Call Me, Beep Me is a recent funny read. Anya Merchant is bringing fresh air to the genre with maturity and storytelling you can scarcely find even among the best authors. Just look at Castle Town and Domestic Decay (the second is derivative in ideas taking a lot from Worm, but that in itself shows taste).

You are just not looking hard enough.

Randi Darren's Fostering Faust is a great idea that fumbles from the midpoint, but an excellent blueprint for how to write erotica with uncommon elements and characters. His System Overclocked manages to use erotica and harem not as a goal in itself, but tries to make an interesting point as well. Darren's work are flawed, of course, but these two are good enough to emulate.

Aside of that, for a perfect erotica story consider Good Intentions. It gets worse starting with the second book and the third I didn't even read, but the first one in and of itself is great.

Consider Prism Academy in particular, solid interweaving of harem elements with the story.

Remember that the best-selling smut must have either incest, cuckoldry or both, You can visit blogs or forums about female sexy novels, it's insane the amount of Old librarian ladies and karens that read smut, and not the tame ones, they would Review shit like "Bully fucks My mom vol 6364" like it was Finnegans Wake lmao.

Title: Castle Town
Author: Anya Merchant
Rating: 7/10

Ooooh, this one was so comfy. The first smut book after NNN had to be special, thus the choice of a book by a female author with a spicy content...more than mere eroticism. I read my first book my Anya Merchant and I was not dissapointed. Memory whispers there was an Anon who wanted my opinion on her books, so there comes the first one. You bet there will be more.

[Plot]
Osteanus is a kingdom ruled by a Heralder King, with each part of it ruled by an Underqueen, a hereditary title of female rulers that serve both as consorts and rulers under the King, although its political situation is more complex than that. In this kingdom, Prince Makoa is a prince, adopted son of Underqueen Avina, whose own son and husband had died when she was young. So far his live was realitively stressful and without worries, but dark clouds hang over his home. Attacks by mysterious monsters and political instability due to the King's incoming demise will push the young prince into a path he never considered before...to stake his claim to the Throne. With support of his mother, comely Underqueen Anevia, her bonded Soul-Mate Petra and Ruby, his childhood friend and servant.

[Review]
I'm so happy I chose this book. I was appraised of the author before - she likes to write erotica, but the spicier one, mostly including young men and mother figures, even other mature women. There were doubts, but they vanished soon after starting the story. Castle Kingside and the author have no right to be as niche as they are, especially when compared to mainstream erotica authors like Bruce Sentar or Randi Darren. The prose and story-telling is of the same level if not more, as the author deftly weaves eroticism, plot and characters together into one of the best erotica books I've read.

Recently, I read a tip from an experienced smut writer - the spirit of it was this: 'Don't be afraid to wait with sexual elements until later, tease and please the reader from the start. That's why they're reading, that's what they want.' And this author is excellent at that. Almost every part of the book attempts to arouse, and even though there aren't that many sex scenes I'm more than satisfied. Finally an author that understands writing erotica is more than cahracters having filthy thoughts or pistoning into each other with wild abandon. From events small and large, the eroticism is built everywhere.

The story is by no means perfect, there were some scenes I simply skimmed out of lack of interest, but they were short. When you reach as much as me, you can sometimes guess the events and conclusion of scenes out of habit, so if the prose isn't masterful you can just skip. Which is not a complement to the author, but it isn't a critic either. All the important bits are here, are they were surprisingly interesting to me, aside of one part around the middle. Well, Castle Town is still a niche Erotica, but at the same time a real diamond in the mud.
