New York Times bestselling author Laurell K. Hamilton offers readers a brand new experience in the world of Anita Blake.
Fusing mythology, werewolves and vampires with a story loaded with mystery, action and romance, the Anita Blake novels take place in a world where vampires, werewolves, and other creatures of nightmare have been declared legal citizens of the United States. Anita Blake is an animator — a profession that involves raising the dead for a living. Anita Blake is also known as a fearsome hunter of criminal vampires, and she moonlights by investigating cases that are far too much for conventional police. But as Anita gains the attention of the vampire masters in her hometown of St. Louis, she also risks revealing an intriguing secret about herself — the source of her unusual strength and power.
As a special treat, Anita Blake fans will also discover an original side story featuring Anita and Dolph, written specially for the hardcover edition by Laurell K. Hamilton.
Review:
"The color artwork blends standard DC Comics/Marvel realism with a shojo manga swirl, especially with the bishonenmen. No nudity or explicitness, but the heavy sexual vibe and later direction of the Anita Blake stories make this best for adult collections." Library Journal
