The story is a bit of a melodrama, covering the developing relationship between Kynon and Brasius, and Kynon’s gradual self exploration when thrust into the world of being a tribute. More porn than plot, and covering a fairly wide range of kinks and scenarios, it’s a creative BDSM fest that is sure to titillate and excite, with a side order of soft D/s romance thrown into the mix. Although it’s set in a quasi historical setting, the language and flow of the prose and scenes is fairly modernized, and it skews quite explicit. Tribute is a slavefic novel with a whole lot of noncon BDSM. And, to be the tribute that Brasius wants him to be, Kynon will have to defy all the traditions of Segasa and risk the wrath of the senate that really holds his chains. On an enforced journey of self-discovery, Kynon learns that being the warlord’s tribute isn’t just about submission. The warlord might just want the man underneath: the prince, the soldier and the tribute, if Kynon can figure out who that is.

But the warlord wants more than a tribute who will respond eagerly to whips and bondage. He can live with the shame it’s the mind-blowing pleasure that frightens him. If his slavery will save his father’s kingdom, then he will be a slave and submit to every indignity the warlord and the senate of Segasa require of him.
