Title: What a travesty
Product review: I wish this was a joke, but it's not. This is a novella dressed up to look like a paperback novel. It formatted with decoractive headers and footers to take up more space, and a third of the book is actually a preview of an upcoming book.The "plot" exists only as an excuse to get Micah and Anita in a hotel room together. Hamilton's Anita Blake book have changed genre from modern horror/fantasy to softcore pornagraphy.I don't mind sex in books, but only if it doesn't get in the way of the plot. In the case of the later Anita Blake books, sex *is* the plot. That wouldn't be so bad, if Hamilton was any good at writing sex. But, her sex scenes are dry and disinteresting, and make me yawn. You find yourself turning pages trying to spot where the sex ends and the story continues. But, the way her most recent books are written there isn't really a story left once you remove the sex.
