Synopsis
When I’m not up to
my elbows in sacrificial gore, I’ve got serious preternatural issues to deal
with. Psychotic shape-shifters, duplicitous vampires and sexually deviant
were-leopards. And that’s just my friends. I’m Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter and
Federal Marshall.
My life is more
complicated than ever, caught up between obligations to the living and to the
undead. Now there is a vampire serial killer preying on strippers. And I’ve
been called in to help the police.
Back story: Jean Claude, Anita and Richard are
in a triumvirate of power, which is rolled around with anger and lust.
Richard
is in a self-destructive part of his life. Mostly where Anita is concerned.
Anita
is an incubus; she needs sex to keep her power steady.
This one: this one is centred mostly (and I
say this in a way that means the love life of her) around Nathaniel and his
need for more of Anita than she thinks she willing to give him.
This
is also the book of the one that got away.
A
bunch of stripper lying dead and Anita is out to help hunt that. Really there
isn’t much more about that I can say.
This
is one of those book that has so much and yet absolutely nothing, I’m actually
decided that I’m going to just tell you, because it’s all be out by next book,
the information, at least this little bit is actually critical to the series
plot, or at least Anita’s.
Her,
Nathanial and Damian create what she and the other boys have which complicates a
lot of shit where the power and her need for sex is concerned.
Nathanial
bitches a lot, but everything he says is justifiable and more so it’s, well,
natural and one of the realest thing in the whole book.
Um,
strippers being murdered, a wedding and a friend who is trying to reconnect when
all she seems to be getting is a slap of jealousy—and this is in a meaning that
she’s the one that jealous of Anita’s life, not the other way around.
Anita
bitch’s like the chick I wish she’d grow out of and we meet two very powerful
boys who will become very close in the books, though it’s only a brief meeting
in this one while she’s chasing the bad guys.
It’s
one of those books that need to be read, if you’re in anyway thinking of not reading
the whole series. It’s also the book that’s connect to Skin Trade and it’s best
if you get to know it all threw this book, though it’s not essence because
Hamilton has made it her mission that none of these books needs to be read
before you pick up any of them, it’s why everything is so overly explained in
them all, because how she’s thinking, it may be your first time reading it and
you need to know what they look like (my words, as far as I know, she’s never
actually said those words).
It’s
a book that’s full of sex and to be honest I’m more than sure it’s got the most
out there sex types of the series, so if you can stomach it then go one
reading, nothing is going to be this bad again (as far as I know).
Ummm....that’s
it I think.
Were
in too deep of the series and I’m starting to fight with myself on what I
should be saying and shouldn’t. Though I do try to keep all the important facts
brief and at the start so you can skip it if you wish and I try not to have all
those details in this part, but it’s become really hard. So I think I’m going
to stop.
