A bit difficult to read, but well worth the time. Authentic reading, for those so inclined. (9/10)

I agree with SensoryOverlord and Snark. The writing is excellent - I would have given it a 10 but for the fact this is supposed to be a bdsm erotica site, and this story was about 95% horror and maybe 5% eroticism, if that. Well worth reading for what I suspect is quite accurate historically. (8/10)

Hmm... deciding how to rate this is a bit like trying to find a comfortable position on a cross. As a story, it's extremely well written. I wouldn't know about the historical detail, yet it seems very convincing and certainly gives the impression of being there. For quality of writing, it's easily worth a 9.
But... this is supposed to be a library of erotic fiction, and like another person wrote, if you find this erotic, I don't want to meet you. One can easily identify with the characters, immerse in the narative. But the result is about 99% terror, even though there's an attractive naked woman involved. If I ever want a boner-killer, I'll re-read this story. As erotica, it would get a zero from me.
Ah well. I'll give it the nine, as a work of historical fiction. I'm just praying George Bush and his friends never read it - we do NOT need crucifiction brought back. (9/10)

Apparently some re-formating was done. There was nothing disturbing the text for me. This is a very troubling, descriptive narrative with what seems to be exceptional historical accuracy of a woman's crucifixtion. NOT for the squeamish. Sparsely erotic (if you get off on it, I don't want to meet you.) Well written, excellent descriptions, with a perspective that begs to ask if the author had actually witnessed a crucifixtion to the death. A 10 for the quality of the writing, about as well written as I have found on the forum. But I didn't find any eroticism in it. (10/10)

As the other reviewer noted the ends of each line were chopped. You writing ability seems very good but the story was impossible to follow. The parts i could read seemed well laid out though. (5/10)

Sorry, but each line was truncated to the point that you couldn't follow the thought. Needs to be reworked and resubmitted (2/10)
