Burnt Offerings ~ Laurell Hamilton

This is the seventh book in the Anita Blake series. Anita is called to the hospital, where she learns that in killing Gabriel, the leader of the wereleopards, she has left them leaderless, and any one's meat, now they are suffering for her ignorance. Anita feels she has to do something, so she sets herself up as the temporary leader of the pard.

The Vampire council has come to town, seeking to determine if there needs to be punishment made for the death of another council member, Mr Oliver, from the third book, The Circus of the Damned. Also there is rumor that Jean Claude, Anita and Richard are starting up a new council and if this is true, it needs to be stopped before it undermines the existing counsel. With the council, a ghost from Jean Claude's past appears, Asher, who blames Jean Claude for the death of his love, and human servant, Julianna, as well as the horrible scarring he has lived with for the last 200 years.

The local Fire Marshal also consults with Anita over what appears to be a series of fires that appear to be started by a pyrokenetic. Can Anita, Jean Claude and Richard survive the encounter with the counsel?

This is the third book in the Anita Blake series. In this book there is a series of murders committed by what appears to be a rouge master vampire and his troupe. While investigating these murders, Anita encounters Alejandro, one of the oldest vampires that Anita has ever encountered. We see a great deal more Were animals in this book, especially werewolves.

Anita has been marked with two of the marks of a human servant, servant to a master vampire that is, and she is not happy about it, and is not submitting to it. And now there are murders being committed, by something preternatural, and Anita has to figure out what it is, and how to kill it, without getting herself killed in the process.

Guilty Pleasures ~ Laurell Hamilton

This is the first book in the Anita Blake series. I just reread this for about the third time, I love this series, it is definitely a sci/fi or fantasy because in these novels Vampires exist, as well as shape shifters or Were's (several species) and vampires are legal citizens in the US. In order to legally deal with criminal vampires the government issues death warrants and vampire hunters then hunt down and kill them, it is illegal to kill a vampire without a warrant. In this novel, we are just being introduced to the world of Anita Blake, we meet a few vampires, as well as Edward, a bounty hunter, and Rafael, the Rat King, he is the leader of the local group of wererats. I love these and reread them fairly often.

This is also the first time we encounter Richard Zeeman, a love interest for Anita.

Guilty Pleasures ~ Laurell Hamilton

This is the first in the Anita Blake series. Anita is an animator, she is able to raise the dead. She is also known as The Executioner, because she is a vampire hunter, she chases and kills vampires who have been convicted to death (in Anita's world, vampirism has been legalized, there is living, dead and undead... ) In this novel, the Master of the City (vampire) hires Anita, against her will, to solve a series of vampire murders happening in St. Louis (Anita's home city). Along the way we learn some of Anita's history, and meet some of her friends.

I have read this series before, and I really like it, it was just what I am in the mood to read for the next little bit.
