Marks bind her to Jean-Claude, the Master vampire of St. Louis and her lover, and to her ex-fiancé, a powerful werewolf who heads up the local pack. Anita shares some of their magic, and her own power over the dead keeps growing. But so does the body count and the situations that force Anita to bend or break her own rules.<p> In <I>Blue Moon</I>, Anita's ex Richard is jailed in Tennessee, accused of rape. When Anita arrives with a lawyer and an entourage of vampires and 'weres' supplied by Jean-Claude, it's clear that something is rotten in Myerton. The local cops are corrupt, and the trolls Richard was studying are threatened. But if she sticks around to investigate, the local Master vampire will attack her and her friends. The local werewolf clan isn't rushing to welcome her either, and her self-control is going to the, um, wolves. <p><I>Blue Moon</I> is the eighth book in Hamilton's <I>Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter</I> series; newcomers should start with earlier books. The protagonists' development and their relationships to each other and to the large cast of continuing secondary characters are what make these books so compelling. Be warned--there's steamy sex and graphic violence here, though Anita <I>does</I> reflect on her moral position. But if dark urban fantasy featuring those who hunt the night appeals, pounce on this series. <I>--Nona Vero</I> 1136422 book 1998 Blue Moon (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, #8) total:5758|5:1942|4:1950|3:1430|2:352|1:84| 5758 22588 7390 136 3 4 false false Thu Mar 19 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 10 21:27:40 -0700 2008 Sat Jul 11 17:31:21 -0700 2009 Though I did end up liking this in the end, for about the first 1/2 of the book, all of the things I don't like about Hamilton's style were out in full force.
