Skin Trade (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, Book 17) (Hardcover)



I've just finished reading "Skin Trade" the 17th book in her Anita Blake Vampire Hunter series by Laurell K. Hamilton.

From Publishers Weekly

Hamilton's 17th Anita Blake novel draws the vampire hunter into a game of cat-and-mouse with a particularly monstrous vampire named Vittorio. Aided by sadistic serial killer Otto Jefferies, convenient sociopath Edward Kemper and fanged escorts handpicked by her lover Jean-Claude, U.S. marshal Anita offers her services to Las Vegas, now under siege from Vittorio's army of enthralled preternatural beings. Manipulated by the cunning Vittorio and occasionally misled by coincidental events, Anita employs her insight into Vittorio's condition and weaponized libido as the decisive weapons in this struggle.

Product Description

A proven series with a hot new look. The #1 bestselling author returns with her most anticipated novel yet.

When a vampire serial killer sends Anita Blake a grisly souvenir from Las Vegas, she has to warn Sin City’s local authorities what they’re dealing with. Only it’s worse than she thought. Ten officers and one executioner have been slain—paranormal style. Anita heads to Vegas, where’s she’s joined by three other federal marshals, including the ruthless Edward. It’s a good thing he always has her back, because when she gets close to the bodies, Anita senses “tiger” too strongly to ignore it. The weretigers are very powerful in Las Vegas, which means the odds of her rubbing someone important the wrong way just got a lot higher.

My review:

This is one of the better Anita books because it deals more with storyline then the sex. Also you don't see Micah (I really hate that guy) and I just want to kill him. LOL!

I know that some people were icked when they find out that Anita had sex with a 16 yr. old shapeshifter. I had no problem with it because she didn't know that she did until the next morning.

4/5
