Mmhm...that's complicated. There's two main characters in the six Kushiel books, they are told through first person narrative, journals sort of. The first narrator is Phedre, the masochist I mentioned, who is a courtesan. The second is Imriel, a Prince of the blood. I don't want to say more cause it would give stuff away, but its very much epic scale, and political. There's pretty graphic battle scenes and sex scenes both; some moments that would belong int he EX area for sure.
