          <body><![CDATA[Aw man, Jamie ruined the surprise!  (Just kidding, Jamie!) I really, really, really liked this series when it first came out.  It was a nice twist on the goth, over the top, oh-how-romantic-and-tragic vampire world favored by Anne Rice et al.  The writing's not stellar but in light of the characters and story I chose to overlook it. I really, really liked Anita Blake.  And then, Hamilton's writing got bogged down in description and detail and her plot twists just got too weird and unbelieable for me.  I slogged through the next several books hoping the description and porn would decrease and the storyline would improve.  Alas, no such luck.  It'll be interesting to see how far you get with this series.  <br/><br/>As for her Meredith Gentry series:  no way.  I quit after book 2. ]]></body>
