Well, you can cross off any desire for me to engage in intergalactic travel in my lifetime! This book focuses on Rice, a filmmaker who is travelling for work to a new planet called Kynaria for a TV episode. He is a pretty horny guy and Kynaria is extremely odd. He goes to a local brothel and realizes his entertainment is a sex-slug that crawls out of a vat of mud. Being human and not into that at all, his drunken self stumbles outside to encounter a gorgeous nymph-like creature. Her smells are intoxicating, her skin glows as they get more intense, and basically the most sensual sexual experience I have ever read takes place. Then he wakes up with parasitic shrimp and mushrooms in his nasal passage and urinary tract. YIKES! Turns out she was a loathsome creature even to the aliens. Oopsy! What a wild ride full of sexual no-nos! Wear condoms, gents!
