New Alpesco Story

The Power Of Karen, by Alpesco

Alpesco is one great writer. He builds suspense like no other. I write in this genre, and even I have to stop reading sometimes, and calm down. And that happens even when I re-read old stories in this series.

There are so many ways he can go with this story. I've thought of 5-6 next steps he might choose.

If I were him, the next installment would be a dream sequence by the "Rosa" character, in which Karen, Xena-like, has to rescue Rosa from some dire danger, like being held in a dungeon by unknown assailants, and she has to kill 3 lions with her bare hands to get there, bending prison cell bars, and killing guards left and right. And then she wakes up in a state you can well imagine.

I have been wondering what will happen to the Vince/Karl character. Will Karen kill him, or will he somehow get the drop on Karen, and Rosa kills him to save Karen.

I am not a fan of lesbianism, but I find Karen's growing erotic power over "Rosa" powerful.

There is very certainly a very dark side to this Karen. She is no heroine, as you can see in the back story. She is a villian. She is ruthless, demanding, contemptuous of authority, and of men. And I know she has this whole thing planned out, so that she ends up with Rosa as her devoted lesbian love slave in the end. I wonder why she finds Rosa so attractive.

However, her strength is heroic. If she were a nice person, she would be a great heroine.

Those who like battles to the death between powerful women and dangerous beasts have much to admire in Alpesco's work. She has punched out horses, strangled a stag, knifed a grizzly bear, broken the neck of a mountain lion, and now that of a horse. Plus bending steel with her bare hands.
