Bullet (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, #19)

by Laurell K. Hamilton

I am back in St Louis and trying to live a normal life - as normal as possible for someone who is a legal vampire executioner and a US Marshal. I have my lovers, my friends and their children, school programs to attend. In the midst of all this ordinary happiness a vampire from my past reaches out. She was supposed to be dead, but the Mother of All Darkness is the first vampire, and it's hard to kill a god.

The Mother of All Darkness believes that the triumvirate created by master vampire Jean-Claude with me and the werewolf Richard Zeeman has enough power for her to regain a body and to emigrate to the New World. But the body she wants to possess is already taken ...

And if the Mother of All Darkness can't succeed in taking over my body for herself, she means to see that no one else has the use of it, ever again.

The worst of the series so far, there were little things I like but beyond that nothing happens in the book.

This one was the beginning of events to come in this series, it's looking as though yes we'll see even more sex, but we're going to see a lot more action as well. You know I used to love Jean Claude and still do, but him being pussy whipped by Anita, is getting old. I would just love if once, he'd ripped her a new a-hole from the way she treats him. he's constantly getting passed over in the love department, by the two people I can't really stand. LOL again I know i'm the minority on that, but oh well. The rest of the books in the series deem to be quite interesting though, I can't wait to read them.

I loved this book. I think it might be my new favorite in the Anita Blake series. LKH finally brings Anita back to St. Louis and all of her men. There are also several new characters. The only thing that could have made this book better in my eyes would be to have Edward in it. He is one of my favorite characters, so I did miss the fact that he was absent in this book (hopefully in the next book **smile**).

It is hard to say much without giving any spoilers, so I will just say a few things that LKH has already said, but I completely agree with. I want the name of Richard's therapist. I am not a fan of Richard, I am sick of his whining, but he kept everything together through some stuff that never would have thought some of the other men could do, even less so from Richard.
