ZiQu: Thankfully, it got better, more action than monologue.

Leonie Mulcahy: Love this book and how it continues to expand the universe and the characters within it - and introduces new baddies to battle now and in the future

A. Starker: Yeah, I am addicted to this series. I'm not going to lie. I feel like THIS is the book that gets *meaty* - the previous 10 or so have been setting up the story, fleshing out the characters, getting us up to speed on everything we need to know, and now...NOW we are getting into it! Depth of relationships, personal growth, more complicated magic, more involvement with peripheral characters. Weirdly, no Edward in this book, but some alluding to him being integral I think in the future.

Yvonne: This will be the 5th time for me reading this book and working my way through the series. I love the strong characters within the book. Anita is one of the strongest bit has her soft side, that she doesn't like people to see.
If you like action, murder mystery and fantasy all thrown together. You will love these books.

JustMe: Cerulean Sins was pretty much just what I'd hoped; less werewolf and shifter stuff, less long confusing conversations, and relationship angst, and more vampire business and police work. Anita even got to do some zombie raising. Everything was basically much more like earlier books. I hadn't enjoyed the last book in the series at all, but CS gave me most of what I was hoping it would, so I will be continuing the series.

I had read that many people ditched the books around this point, mainly due to the change in Anita and her suddenly sleeping around and having so many partners. Honestly, I don't mind that. There's not that much sex. Hamilton doesn't write particularly great sex scenes, in my opinion. There are a couple of awkward moments, one scene with Jean Claude left me open-mouthed in a bad way, another scene where she ended up 'trapped' and ill, well, I don't know if we were supposed to laugh at that, or be disturbed. But there are a few hot moments. I don't really care that Anita has so many boyfriends, in fact I quite like it. I think what I do question is how she no longer seems to care about other peoples opinions; she is quite open about having multiple partners. I...

Jannet D. Hernandez: The book starts with Anita raising a Zombie. Very imaginative, very surreal, very cool.
Mussette shows up uninvited and Anita's cavalry arrives, it was so intense when all the were animals showed up. And the writer does such a great job at reminding us about the details of each pack. I just knew things were gonna turn in our favor when they showed.
I totally got the title but I'm not gonna spoil it, all I can say is poor Asher I feel so sorry for him, seeing his scarred face and body and seeing Jean Claude perfectness and all the power around them that Asher can never have. But the things Anita says about him makes him more wonderful to me.
I very much enjoyed the new and improved Anita, she doesn't question her every move anymore. I feel like she is trusting her instincts at all times now which is refreshing.
I can't help but wonder where does Nathaniel's thick auburn hair goes when he shapeshifts? We may never find out...
When Richard helped Anita push Belle Mortes mark away I felt that destiny keeps bringing them together and I feel the same way Anita does, just when I thought I was over him he comes back looking better and even with all his demons I just love...

mom of 3: I was a bit worried about this series after about book 7/8 the reviews seemed to be going way down. I just finished book 11 last night and I am awaiting the next 3 I ordered. I admit that at some points like books 9 & 10 there seems to be a lot more of the sit around and talk, but at the same time it does help you to understand some things about the America they live in the side where all the supernatural happens I guess you can say and peoples powers and how they work.

I like the direction this series is going. Anita is working through her struggles with her own powers because no one knows much about her necromancer. To me out of all the guys Anita has in her life JC is basically the one who "gets" her. Who shows some kind of understanding in all this. He accepts her as is and knows where her thinking comes from and how it works and to me it looks as though he is willing to wait it out and just be there for her while she continues to help everyone in her life, she is very nurturing and loyal to those she cares for.

I am not sure where I read this if it was a reviewer or part of the description of one of the books, but it said something like this. The more Anita...

H. Rapp: The story starts like former books of this series. Anita Blake have to reanimate a corpse. But very fast the story switch to the shape-shifters and vampires. Again we have a lot of horror scenes and mor sex scenes than the last part. She have sex with a lot of vampires and shape-shifteres.

Best point for me in this book was that Asher become more and more importance for Anita and Jean-Claude. They three together pleased me a lot and the sex scene between them was full of erotic.

The visit from Musette and Belle Morte was full of vampire political issues and the new characteres are strong explained like all of them in Anita Blake books.

The black humor just has been in this book as eroticsm, tension and action. As the part 10 before, this books aren't for people with defence of sex scenes and horror parts. But if you liked the books before, you will be pleased from this one.

Rini: I've read all of Hamilton's work, and I have the feeling she's been reading the reviews from readers. Although a lot of the aspects of NiC IS still present, there are some big differences, and they happen to be all the ones we complained about.
Really the primary one is, well, the amount of sex. There wasn't a "four guys, one girl" thing (thank GOD), but there still is a lot of it. Hamilton can't seem to keep her hands off the erotica stuff, and, having read the "Gentry" stuff, I think she's trying to find her stride in the "Blake" novels. Frankly, I don't think that it NEEDS all the sex, but OKIE-DOKIE.
In the "Gentry" novels, there's a lot of men literally begging to have sex with the solo woman, and she is okay with it, in a whole "sex is okay" kinda way. I suspect Hamilton is trying to do that with Anita Blake, because there was a lot of discussion on what exactly constitutes "sex" and the differences between the "American" and "European" definition. Also, Hamilton seems to be making Anita take "control" of the ardeur, which means it may not show up in the next one! (My personal hope)
I'm also glad there were more vampire, and less were- politics. Richard thankfully...
