- The worst yet...
I enjoyed the earlier Anita Blake books... LKH's heroine was different and for once - a strong female lead. She gradually went from being a prude to being a prude that was "oh-so-guilty" over having sex to a pure nymphomaniac. I didn't much like Anita when LKH made her so powerful - in fact, indestructible - that she was no longer realistic/sympathetic as a character. I think this was just prior to the horrible "Incubus Dreams" which was like a metaphysical train wreck. Reading that novel made my head spin... there was NO plot. At least I made it through Blood Noir without wanting to bang my head against the wall. This series has gone 'round the bend. I recommened Tanya Huff's Victoria Nelson series. Huff remained true to her characters and ended the series when the story played out... she let them leave on a good note. LKH needs to end the AB series before she completely destroys every character... Jean-Claude ... Read More

- Shame on you publishers. Shame.
Oh... my... God...

Not a very helpful review I know, but that's all I can think to say. This book was so bad, pointless and poorly written, I am struck dumb by the idea that it was actually written - oh my god - and published too!

Pity I can't give this a negative 3...sigh

- My how far we've fallen...
Okay, the first thing I want to say is that there is way too much sex in this book. A few sex scenes here and there are not bad, after all -- I'm no prude. However, it's a completely different matter when the first sex scene is three pages into the novel and she proceeds to have a sex scene roughly about every 25 pages. In a novel this size, that's just too much. Also, Mrs. Hamilton seems to have spent the most of their time on the plot whatsoever. I mean, come on -- Keith Summerland -- I wonder how much thought she put it to that.

There are a few bright spots. But let me stress that -- a few. For instance, we did not have to put up with Mika whining through most of this movel. Oh, and how I wish Anita would just kill Richard, and be done with it. Because that's the only way I see that Mrs. Hamilton can get rid of him at this point.

Other than that, the novel was great. I suppose if you ... Read More

- How can such a great series go so bad?
The Anita Blake series is one of my favorites. At least the first ten books or so. After this one, I officially give up. What happened to the spook squad? Isn't she supposed to be working with the police? But all of those characters just disappeared without an explanation several books ago, so that Anita could spend 4oo or 500 pages having sex with hot guys. Usually several of them at once. I get that considering what a prude she was in the first book, that some might actually consider this character development. I think I'm done with the series.
