Rating: Summary: Can't Put It Down! Review: I love this Anita Blake series! And so far, I've loved all the books. This one I didn't quite like as well as the previous ones, which is why I gave it only four stars, but it's definitely still worth the read. It's a must, if you plan on reading the rest of the series (which I highly recommend!)It has lots of action, a love story, a little gore, a little fantasy, and moves at a great pace. Once started on these books, you can hardly put them down.
Rating: Summary: Ah*shaking hand in a so-so manner* Review: It was interesting, I supposed, but a little too predictable. She started out with three cases and of course they were all tied in one. The fey thing was interesting but got a little old with the including of Rawhead and Bloody Bones. A little out there in my opinion.
Rating: Summary: Yay! Review: It's about damn time Ms. Hamilton mentioned the fey! A good book. I will never forget the lines: "Please don't tell me he just went poof!" "He didn't just go poof." A great read for any Anita fans
Rating: Summary: Anita Blake Is My Hero!!!!!!!!! Review: I love this series! I love this book. You know, seeing the life that Anita leads makes my life feel like a breeze. How many characters raise the dead, slay vampires(only the bad guys), beat up shape-shifters, command the unnatural, barely stays alive and still manages to keep a day job?
Rating: Summary: Anita Blake and Jean-Claude: What a combination!!! Review: Anita Blake is tough, smart and with that sarcastic wit, she's something else (definitely not your usual heroine). In this installment, she travels to Branson, Missouri to raise a cemetary full of zombies. Of course, nothing ever goes as well as planned. With the help of Jean-Claude, Master Vampire, they kick some serious monster butt.
Rating: Summary: good, not great, but it's still Anita Review: This wasn't the greatest book in the series but it was still a really good book. This book didn't quite have the same bite, if you will excuse the pun, as the other books did. I just didn't think the action or the jokes were as good, but I still finished it in one sitting. Anita is growing closer to the dead at each step whether she want's to or not, adn this also means she is growing closer to Jean Claude. Dispite all her efforts to get rid of him he moved from monster to someone she cared for. And the saga continues. This book was well written and amusing, and introduces us to an all new "magical" group and their slave, Bloody Bone
Rating: Summary: Anita keeps evolving... Review: Anita keeps getting better and better. Her character is evolving into something wonderful, and you can't see what yet. You gotta keep reading just to see where her story will take her
Rating: Summary: Anything about Anita Blake is bound to be worth reading. Review: The Anita Blake series in general is a break from the norm of - well, to be honest, of any type of books I've ever read. This book is not as good as the others so far, but its certainly one of the most interesting books to come along in a while. In this book Anita, a necromancer who raises the dead for a living, goes to Missouri to do a job and quickly runs into all kinds of trouble with faries, werewolves, and vampires
Rating: Summary: Not the Best Anita Blake, but still a comer... Review: If you've not read any of the Anita Blake - Vampire Hunter novels by Laurell K. Hamilton, you should read them in the order in which they're published, as various plot twists could become very difficult to follow if you read Bloody Bones first. In any event, this series is an absolute hoot in the Horror/Sci-Fantasy/Vampire genre. Anita Blake, animator, is also a licensed vampire killer; except now Vamps have all legal rights of any citizen under the Consitution. Anita, petite and HIGHLY deceptive, is also officially attached to RPIT - the Regional Preternatural Investigation Team of the local police force. The outstanding feature of the Anita Blake books (which is slightly missing in Bloody Bones - hence my rating of a 9 instead of a 10) is the relentless humor which leavens and lightens the darkness of the situations in which she finds herself - both verbal and situational twists which are highly amusing. I thought that Bloody Bones was a very good continuation of the series, although, again, I would prefer that Ms. Hamilton allow the wry humor that so set her previous works apart to reappear; but this won't stop me from ordering her next one! I highly recommend any of the Anita Blake books to anyone who enjoys the genre and has a sense of humor
Rating: Summary: A vicious vampire plot Review: Anita Blake is my kind of vampire slayer-hunter. I love vampire books of all kinds, this one though is different. Anita can stick up for herself, thats what makes these books so much more readable than the "oh-no the heroine has fallen, the vamp is gaining on her ahh!"type of book. I havent yet read any of the other Anita books, infact I just discovered this one. I cant wait to read the rest
