“The fact that the punishment worried me more than the crime said something about my moral state.”
The chaste and frustrated Anita Blake at the core of the
first 6 books is well and truly put to bed in volume seven of the series. The
sex and violence aspects are amped up to the max with a possible pyromaniac and
the vampire council causing havoc for the perpetually armed necromancer.
There are the requisite make out sessions with her hunky
vampire boyfriend, tedious awkwardness with her ex-boyfriend – the werewolf and
a lot of getting up close and personal with various paranormals as part of the ‘healing’
process. Did I mention the repugnant vampiress who likes to rot all over her
victims – don’t read this one before a meal!
Killing off the leader of there wereleopard pack has
provided additional complications for Anita. Is there ever such a thing as a
boring, run-of-the-mill day at work for this eye of the storm?
I'm almost embarrassed to be sharing my love of paranormal
romance with the world - perhaps its a sad indictment of the lack of magic
happening in my life at the moment? In any case, I think its time I moved on to
something different. 4 out of 5 more of the same kinky creatures and body count - throw another vamp on the barbie.
