Negative Positive
Title: I could not finish it.
Review: I liked the early books in the Anita Blake series. The early books were pleasantly gruesome, and had a quite intelligent idea on how a society where the occult does exist would function. Sex was always in the background; humans would be drawn to the vampires, and the vampires would be all to happy to oblige - at a price.Human relations were only at a business level, also something that would suit a fearless vampire hunter.Now, the characters spend most of their with jealous bickering and sex games. Every few pages there is a snippet of story, which is quite good, but too little of it.Ms Hamilton tries to make her characters three dimensional and realistic, but I fear she succeeds only in watering out the stories and writing second rate human relations dramas and sex manuals.
