Bullet Anita Blake Vampire Hunter Laurell K Hamilton 9780425234334 Books

I've read all the preceding books in the series and this one was the worst of the lot. Unfortunately, the series has drifted away from its mystery/action core and settled into more of a pornographic series. The emphasis is less on the character, less on what seems to have been the overall plot, and more on the sex and the heroines inner struggles over her many relationships. All to say, boring and tiresome. And from the reviews of the following titles in this series, the porno focus continues to grow while all other plot lines diminish. So, I'm finished with this series.

Bullet Anita Blake Vampire Hunter Laurell K Hamilton 9780425234334 Books Reviews

When I first read this book I did not review it because I thought it was by far her worst book yet. After rereading all her books again to prepare for the release of Kiss the Dead I deceided to do a review. The story of Anita Blake has always been one of my favorite supernatural series. The thing I dislike about the series now is the constant need to claim her character is always a monster or sex craved. I believe the ardeur was the downfall of the series. It was alright when she first introduced the idea but then it was more and more men and sex. Then the constant belief in herself that she is a monster and a slut. Then the other cops or marshalls comments on her being a slut or her need to have her boyfriends around all the time.The only advice I can give LKH is if you want the ardeur in the book then accept what has happened with the characters and at least stop having Anita's character making comments that she can't sleep with another person or she is a bad person because of it. It is just getting old. As for the book I can not really give a plot or idea about the book it was everywhere. You have Anita killing people, saving people, working out with her guards ( and of course being faster and stronger than them ) and you even have her having sex with a woman which she never would have done before since she does not like women to even hug her. Also JC and Richard have sex with a woman in front of Anita. All this is a contradiction to the characters in past books. Very annoying and nothing like I expected of the book.
Mommy Dearest is back in Bullet. In this one Anita and all her men are up against the council who have been taken over by mommy dearest and she is trying to kill Anita bc she has not been able to take her over by her self. We also learn that the golden tigers are still out there and they are coming to St. Louis to be with Anita. This is good a good book and part of a good series.
So this book was great for the basic storyline and to connect the before and after books, but 70% of it could be erased and we'd be left with the same substance plus some sex fluff. I skipped this and about 7 other books because although I love a good sex scene (and these weren't that good... basic smut), I still like substance to my "no thinking required" books. I have finally gone back to pick up these missing links and have resigned myself to just get past the cheap sex. If you read Laurell for smut, this should work for you. If you follow the story, yuppie can pick up a few gems in here. She's talented, but I think she was distracted and under pressure to meet deadlines.
I've read all of Laurell K Hamilton's Anita Blake, the Vampire Hunter and Merry Gentry series books several times. I have them in hardback and paperback. Now I'm getting them in ebook, kindle form. The books are so entertaining that each time I read them I admire the author more. So creative, fun, detailed, exciting and fast paced. I know the books but each reread is still amazing and engrossing. This book is the starting point of Anita excepting the ardeur because of the power she gains from it to help those she loves. When she isn't fighting bigots, chauvinist and her inner demons she's kicking bad little vampire butts because she's the Vampire Executioner.
I almost always enjoy Anita Blake books, and this was was no exception. I've read this one several times over the years and still am engaged in the story as an observer, feeling a lot of Anita's angst about the changes and decisions she's forced to make, and watching her mature as a necromancer and a woman. The European Contingent arrives earlier than plans and chaos and havoc ensue. A shapeshifting foreigner is serially killing people.A
And Richard continues to be so self-interest that he nearly is responsible for other's deaths. Other than a bit too much detail in the intimate scenes, the book is a great addition to Anita's life story.
In the beginning I just loved Anita and her stories. The last 6-7 books have been utterly disappointing. Bullet, is in my opinion, the worst of them all. The character arc Hamilton has made my beloved Anita go through is terrible. There was one sex scene in this book that literally took up 25% of the entire book!!!! And then right after there were about 10 pages describing what everyone was wearing after they showered. The latest books in this series are a hypersexed romance novel with some scant police work thrown in as an afterthought. It doesn't matter how gorgeous everyone involved is, I feel really bad for Anita having to be screwing so many people constantly. And the fact that Anita is "deeply in love" with so many people at one time is ridiculous, given her initial personality. Jean Claude, Richard, Asher, Micah, and Nathaniel. Good lord, I understand maybe loving two at one time, but no one can be "in love" with that many all at once.

Hamilton should retire this series,,,or start writing them like she did in the beginning. I miss Anita describing Edward flamethrowing some rogue vamp to death, or raising an entire cemetery of zombies. I understand giving Anita ONE person finally to love, but to have her constantly sleeping in a naked pile of people because it's a metaphysical "need" is abhorrent to me. If early Anita met her own author, I bet she'd kick Hamilton's rear end.

I've read Hamilton being annoyed with people's recent critiques on her work. Don't care, lady. Stop doing this to my Anita.
I've read all the preceding books in the series and this one was the worst of the lot. Unfortunately, the series has drifted away from its mystery/action core and settled into more of a pornographic series. The emphasis is less on the character, less on what seems to have been the overall plot, and more on the sex and the heroines inner struggles over her many relationships.
