Customer Reviews

The worst book I've ever read

I thought the Anita Blake series started strong, but each book fell a little further and further from the mark. However, Micah doesn't even qualify as a book. It has no plot, no action, little characterization, and a barely there narrative. The book is set up in pretty conventional fashion. The police need Anita to come investigate a horror-related crime. She rolls up in town with Micah and they grab a hotel room. The rest of the book is, literally, her angsting over whether or not she can.. ahem... fit Micah's impressive physique inside her. Then, of course, she discovers that she has no problems with the endeavor and in the final pages we're told that the police solved the case without her help at all! But the dumbest thing? This is a book that is part of a series. And she'd not only already slept with well over a dozen dudes, she'd even already slept with Micah!

Wow, that was fast

I have read the entire Vampire Hunter series and had waited to read this one forever before I remembered how cheap it was online. I love the characters in this book. I have read the Twilight series as well but this series is a litte more adult which is right up my alley.

Mmmm... leopards

I was glad to see she spent some time on Micah... I really like him as a 'person' and was glad to hear her tell his story finally.

Readable

Have read all her books, and liked this one for the story line, have not missed a book

Awsome like all the rest

I loved this book like all the rest before it. I have actually just started reading the Anita Blake series last week and im already on book 14 now, i havn't been able to put any down. I've been to the book store everyday now haha. This novel even though fairly short gave me some more info on the character Micah, who I'm sure everyone has been wondering about since he came into the picture. I think the erotic parts are very descriptive but i love them. He is almost every women/mans dream guy in sure. The story line suffers a little but i love erotic novels so i was in love with it. Anita Blake novels in the past had made me waiting and waiting for some erotica her always saying no when she should have been saying yes. It's actually a relief for me that she has finally givin into her erotic side. I would not have these books go in any other direction, I have not yet read a vampire novel that has no sexual activity in it. It's to be expected and Anita Blake has not let me down!!! Keep up the good works!!

A yawner

Too much Anita, not enough Micah, after all we were supposed to find out more about him, hopefully so we could give a hoot about him. We already knew he had "kitty kat" eyes,a too passive demeanor, and a too huge member. Scant background on Micah, we learned very little we could use to flesh out his character. What did learn here, is Anita's IQ drops with sex, as she keeps using metaphysically challenged blood donors, and participants in her zombie raising, and expecting things to go well. It appears Laurell must be losing IQ points writing about sex, because she is either running out of ideas or getting lazy, as she has started a series of self-repeating loops on sex scenes, zombie raising, interactions with Richard,and after a while, it feels like a lot of "cut and paste." We also learned Laurell is not above shamelessly milking a series, and watering down the milk. Boo000.
