Hey, Jean-Claude sounded a bit too prissy for me, blue eyes notwithstanding, but there were few others that Anita Blake stuck in her back pocket for later consideration. Unfortunately for Anita, her status as were-leopard Queen is beginning to cut into her vampire's sex life...

Personal tastes do vary, do they not?  Doubtless the actual taste of a person varies one from another as well... :vampsmiley:

Yeah, Anita started out as this hard-ass prim zombie animator and ends up sleeping with the entire Supe community just because she can get away with it.
Interesting that all of Hamilton's male characters all look like different versions of Fabio or some other romance novel cover boy. Long hair down to their butts or whatever, cut, buff, either strippers or something similar. Just once I'd like to see a guy that was military buzz-cut, martial arts trained Navy Seal or whatever...you know, kind of like Jason Statham !! The long hair thing just seems way too 70's to me now. I'd like to see them rough, tough and butch. Just my personal preference, hehe.

Maya, my darling, do try to keep up. :bigwink2:
Those long-haired guys cut their hair from time to time and sometimes even get a buzz cut.  So, be still, your throbbing heart?

For the benefit of you folks who live in a different country and who may not yet have the books we have available to us here in the US, this is a spoiler:
***Removed for the benefit of those who haven't read all the books or haven't access to them as yet***
Hey, how come we don't have invisitext for spoilers?

If you're using the black and steel version of the message board, just change your color to black text in the upper tool box and it won't show up. As for Ms Blake, I haven't read all of the books yet, so bear with me...
Soooo does that mean that Nathaniel isn't her pomme de sang any longer? Shoot.

Anita sleeps with anyone and anything. I think she only draws the line now at human. Guess Dolph and Zerbrowski are safe. Wonder if I could sleep with every man in sight and then blame the ardeur too?
BTW I agree she's been looking at too many romance novel covers. The only one I recall cutting their hair was Richard and he did it while he was having some ah...issues.

I think alot of these fantasy/mystery writer ladies are from a certain age group, (over 40) and they put onto paper the kind of guys that get THEM hot. Not to mention that by and large, most of the female characters are actually just a 'Mary Sue' archetype of the writer themselves as they'd like to really be. Not that there's anything wrong with that. *btw, I'm much older than 40, so I can talk, hehe*

You are not the only one.
I stopped with a "Killing dance"...
I`ve just leaf trough the"Skin trade",and been very dissapointed with plot.
Too much sex,to little original lines .
(..main reason I read previous books were her feelings,
her childhood memories,(...her dog She raised from the grave),
problems with her job (the man raised from the tomb because He did not leave a will.She was the only one that remained after reading the testament,
and after his (greedy) family left.Man just wanted to go home and she had to put him back into his grave (..sniff..
She was more human then....

Anita Blake books can be good when she tones down the constant sex a bit. Personally you can keep the vamps, I'll take Ted "Edward" Forrester. I think he's probably the most interesting character in the Anita Blake world. Such a bad ass. If they ever made a movie from the series Edward would be a perfect role for Michael. I think he would really sink his teeth into that one! Pun intended.
A couple of the better ones she did later in the series was "Obsidian Butterfly" and "The Harlequin"

Who says I am finished with reading ..?...
I`ve just said ,that I`ve stopped with "Killing dance".
At least ,for a while.
(...I `m dealin` with serious case of over-saturation with vampires,
werevolves,ghouls..etc..etc..  )

........... ..so very true...

Our "Gun for hire"..??
Interesting choice.
He`s got so many aliases,and fake ID`s (and guns),that I`m not sure if Edward is his real name..

Actually Edward is one of the best characters she's written, I wish she'd give him more 'face time' with Blake. The other guys just seem to be hanging around hoping to get her sexual crumb leftovers. I'd like to see her team up with him more for a good story, unless she's already done that and I've missed it. So far I've only read 4 out her her million books, so bear with me. I'm also working on the 'Black Dagger Brotherhood'. Very nice.
