Ilustration During Books Bloody Bones (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter #5)
In Laurell K. Hamilton's "New York Times" bestselling novels, Anita Blake, vampire hunter and animator, takes a bite out of crime-of the supernatural kind. But even someone who deals with death on a daily basis can be unnerved by its power... When Branson, Missouri, is hit with a death wave-four unsolved murders-it doesn't take an expert to realize that all is not well. But luckily for the locals, Anita is an expert-in just the kinds of preternatural goings-on that have everyone spooked. And she's got an "in" with just the kind of creature who can make sense of the slayings: a sexy master vampire known as Jean Claude.Declare About Books Bloody Bones (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter #5)

This was a really good story, powerful vampires, conniving humans and some fae thrown in for good measure. Not to mention un-dead pedophiles....yeah that's a disturbing one.Anita and Larry get the full limelight and it's a really good team story, the dynamic with Jean-Claude is fun too and although the subject is there the 'who-to-choose' romance isn't at the top of agenda.There's the usual mix of good and bad characters, odd individuals and true bad guys. There's guns and magic and blood andit was a little all over the place near the end, but i still like it so far
Although I never really learned to like Anita Blake, she was always tolerable ~ until Bloody Bones. Didn't Anita complain about all of the Were's alpha fight/dominance nonsense in Lunatic Cafe? Really, she is no better than the Were's here. If you take out all of the "I'm a bigger badass than you are" scenes & descriptions of corny outfits, you are left with nothing more than a short story. Granted.... I do like Hamilton's story telling. But at this point I feel as if I am wading through the
Come to me, child, and I will always be with you. I will hold you forever. - Serephina The most terrifying monster can see into your heart and give you all youve ever wanted. Anita has been called to the next town to raise the very old dead and hunt a child killing vampire. It will mean dealing with another Master of the City, a woman Jean Claude never wanted to see again.Anita is pretty awful to Jean Claude in this book but the vampire has long term plans... and theyre working. Some of my
Bloody Bones continues Anita Blakes non-stop exploits in a book containing faerie characters and multiple story lines which added to the brilliant book. The gore factor is high in this book.(view spoiler)[Anita is requested to go to Branson to raise bodies for at wealthy investor, Mr. Sterling, who has interest in a piece of prime real estate to build a resort. To get there Anita shared a phobia of mine in traveling by helicopter. Glass bottom airborne motorcycles requires nerves beyond my
I keep giving the series only 2 stars, yet keep reading. Why? Because I like the plot. However, Hamilton's writing style just makes me skim through large chunks of the story until I get to the interesting bits, so it's a love-hate relationship.I like the love triangle between Richard, Anita, and Jean Claude. The introduction of the fey was interesting as well.Also, finally Anita is behaving like a religious person (or at least more so than before), although as yet she still hasn't been to
Most enjoyable. And she seems to be getting closer to Jean-Claude. Yippeee
