An erotic Swords and Sorcery novel by one Cobalt Jade, available here or here.

It's porn. Quite good porn with plot, featuring plenty of IKEA Erotica but avoiding, in most cases, cliche. It's quite funny in parts, but still definitely porn.

It goes without saying that the above links are both Very, Very Not Safe For Work.

• Bodyguard Babes: The ruler of the heroine's homeland employs an elite fighting unit of women who ride giant flightless birds, which the heroine initially aspires to join.

• Evil Sorceror: Shezrine. Also Evil Warlord.
