Relation In Pursuance Of Books Burnt Offerings (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter #7)
"You can't trust anyone who sleeps with the monsters."That's what I've always said. That's what I've always believed. But now I'm the one sharing a bed with the Master Vampire of the City.

Not my favorite Anita Blake book so far, but still a really good read. Fun characters, and Anita is up to her usual witticisms. (view spoiler)[ I liked she picked Jean Claude but still feels bad for Richard. (hide spoiler)]Out of the entire series, one of my favorite characters is Nathaniel. So when I realized that this is the book he would be introduced into .. I was like woo hoo! Ok, now that I have that out of my system, I can move forward with the tid bits of this and thats I have for this book. Another brilliant piece of work by Laurell Hamilton! The twists in this book are amazing, and they end up playing through to the end of the series. Its neat to be able to reread a series and pick up on all the little
Hmmm, I noticed most of the reviews here dont go into any sort of plot here. I couldnt figure it out at first but now that Im almost finished with this reread I get it. There isnt one. Well, thats not quite true. There were threads of plot, the vampire council has come to town to rape and pillage the beasties, but really this book is all about Anita gaining power, dealing with her two lover boys and gaining new puppy doggies and kitties who follow her every command. Its bloody, its sexual but
These books are getting grittier. The Vampire Council comes to town and they are some sadistic motherf*ckers! Torture, rape, and murder are their nice qualities, and Jean Claude and Anita have giant bulls-eyes on their backs. The good news is that Anita keeps getting more and more bloodthirsty herself. Some days I thought I was becoming a sociopath. Some days I thought I was already there. sociopaths have the best senses of humor...In this book we get to meet some awesome new characters:
**Update: Did a re-read with the audiobook. I really enjoyed the narration.This might have been my favorite in the series so far. Overall, I would probably give it a 4.25, but there are still plots, writing and characterizations that give me pause. Firstly, rule number one when writing a strong female lead, do not cross the line from smart, independent woman to arrogant misogynist. When that happens, shes no longer smart or likable. Were on book 7 and so far, theres been two women in the entire

Right at the beginning of this book a person with pyrokinetic abilities is described as being loose in the city. Sounds good and fits the title of the book and the description. But, then nothing happens on this theme for over 300 pages. This is a case of literary bait and switch. Almost the whole book is about petty squabbling between members of the Vampire Council, the local vampires and various factions of shape shifting were beasts. Hamilton does a good job of forging an emotional connection
