Blood Noir (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, Book 16)

There is an overarching plot in most of the Anita Blake novels, but you won't find it in this one. There is one, and only one thing that happens that would change the structure of the world for the characters, and it isn't given much attention. SPOILER WARNING! So you don't waste your time with this book, here's the goody: weretigers have a way to breed successfully. That should make a huge difference to the shapechanger population, since none of the rest of them can carry a pregnancy to term.

Well I have to say that at least this was more entertaining than Stephanie Meyer's Breaking Dawn

Weak at best, to bad amazon doesn't have negative stars. Dragging out this transition is just too painful. If you take out the unrelated sex acts you may have 75 pages, which on my budget is not worth the retail price (I borrowed my copy ). I am now getting my vampire fix from C. Harris and others. LKH better look over her shoulder because there are some really good authors gaining on her.

I can't believe there's an audience out there that reads this stuff. Poorly written. I MEAN VERY, VERY, POORLY WRITTEN. The publishing house for this book must not go for quality work. If this author can get published, anyone can.

Basic plot is that Anita goes with Jason to meet his family because his father is dying of cancer. She is playing his girlfriend because one of her boyfriends talked her into it. OK, well that really isn't the plot, the real plot is her just having sex with Jason and whoever else pops in - and annoying everyone she comes into contact with.

I have to say this was a step (albeit a baby step) closer to what the series used to be. Most of the time you watch characters grow in a series, however in this one they all seem to be regressing to high school... or at least high school in some twisted porn. Anyway, on the off chance that the series ever does rebound, there is some info you may want. However, I would by no means recommend buying. You are by far better off if you just check it out from the library.
