About this book
The early Anita Blake novels find new life in trade paperback-as perfect collectibles for long-time fans or as great ways for new readers to sink their teeth into the series.

“Stupidity isn’t punishable by death. If it was, there would be a hell of a population drop.” There’s no particular reason I chose this quote from the book to start out this review other than I thought it was funny. So sue me.

Since picking up the books, I've become an overnight fan of Laurell K. Hamilton and her Animator with an attitude, Anita Blake. In a genre that's seen it's share of vampire slayers that make you feel like you're watching something effortless or show too much 'sympathy for...
