Hopefully someone on the list can jog my memory (using something less forceful
than a Narn bat, thanks for the offer, Tom). I've read a book but can't
remember the title or author. The premise is that some people can slip away
from the "real world" into Faerie; as you go farther away from Earth, people
become more nomadic, and therefore less inclined to high tech items (eg they
can build sailing ships but
don't stick around long enough to build silicon-chip plants).  The
hero, his secretary who he's been trying to rescue, and his friends are nearly
sacrficed in a voodoo ritual.

This ring a bell for anyone?

Quite liked them myself; they'd make an excellent RPG background.

Yeah. And the badguys are werewolfish pirates and the sailing ships can fly
and the hero ends up channeling the spirit of St.James and the secretary gets
raped and her therapy is a lesbian encounter with the goodguy ship's skipper
or XO (Can't remember which). But I can't remember the title. Engrossing, but
left me feeling a little violated. Weird book.

Cloud Castles? Assuming I'm reading the descriptions correctly in Amazon.com.
