During the 1970s, Eros Publishing Company launched the Bizarre Books series with diagonal Eros Goldstripe ribbons on covers. The series included male domination and female domination novels, often with forced transvestism, usually illustrated by a gifted artist.

from the back cover :
— Vic Newcombe was looking for a hot story, not a new way of life. But that's what he found the night he stumbled into Irene's, an ominous bar and favorite meeting place for women who loved leather, who craved domination, who needed to inflict pain to arouse their insatiable and maddened sexual appetites. These were the dominatrices, the amazons in high heels and skintight leather attire, as adept at bondage as they were at masculine abuse. Vic wanted to write a book about their life style and so he turned to Irene, the owner of the bar, for inspiration. But she gave him much more than just a good story.

After suffering a vicious sado-sexual attack by three hot-blooded bitch goddesses in the back room of her bar, he went home with Irene, never suspecting what was in store for him. There, amidst wild sexual pleasures, she taught him the ABCs of bondage and masculine debasement. Her tortures came in many packages, all wrapped with the succulent tinsel of her lush and arousing body. And the more time he spent with her, the more he learned.

Sadistic Irene takes her pleasure from Vic in conventional stud service and fiendishly unconventional twists. She enjoys whipping, paddling, pinching and anal intrusion. Often changing sexy costumes to suit mercurial whims, Irene considers herself a kind of bizarre regent who's generous to the aspiring writer by permitting him the privilege of being the object of her cruelty.

Seductive Irene wears high-heeled shoes or boots, stockings, waist-cinchers, corset, and gloves when she degrades her victim. In one scene, she has Vic in pantyhose.

Except for advertising, the ebook has all the content of the paperback volume, including the color cover and back cover. While later Bizarre Books volumes were published with 12 ink drawings, Leather Bar Ladies has 16 illustrations by the Great Bill Ward. Tasty fetish features of these voluptuous images are repeated, enlarged, on separate pages. As the ebook shows images as large as possible on monitor screens, it functions as an optimized version on 50 picture pages.

The narrative does a good job of describing the vicious attitudes of the women. They enjoy abusing their prey and using them to satisfy relentless sexual appetites. They are drawn as competent villains who outwit and overpower their prey. For those who enjoy reading about sadists who play with helpless men, Leather Bar Ladies delivers an enjoyable read with nasty punishments and sensual sex scenes.

Illustrations depict incidents in the story and the grand female figures of alluring sadists. As permitted by story content, page sequence was revised to position each picture close to related prose, but not every picture is described nor does every scene appear in pictures.

Except for ads, the ebook contains all the content of the original paperback book. All original scans.

The text has been completely re-set for the ebook version. Editing changes spelling and punctuation. Superfluous words and phrases were eliminated to relieve redundancy and achieve a smoother read. 37,000 words.

The author, artist, editor and printer collaborated effectively to produce the excellent Leather Bar Ladies volume in 1973. There has never been a better mechanism for enjoying this rare femdom fantasy.
