The plot was good, and action-packed, and the author did a great job building the tension between Anita and her two love interests. The world-building was as good as usual, too. The only flaw that was serious enough (in my opinion) to affect my review is that I didn't buy into the love between Anita and Richard as much as I wish I could have. It seemed that they didn't have enough experiences together and affection for each other for the relationship to progress as deeply and as quickly as it did. Even with less page-time, I bought into Anita's love for Jean-Claude much more easily. I don't know why, but I did, and the "flatness" of Anita and Richard's relationship impacted my enjoyment of the story somewhat. Other than that, this was well worth the read and I look forward to reading the next book in the series. Sarà che mi sono piaciuti sempre di più i vampiri dei licantropi.... Rispetto agli altri libri che ho letto finora dell'autrice, devo dire che questo mi è piaciuto un po' meno. C'era sicuramente meno azione, troppa libidine e..troppi licantropi!! Fortunatamente ci sono sempre delle pagine dedicate a Jean-Claude, così almeno ho potuto respirare anche in mezzo ad un libro del genere..ok, non sono tanto fan dei lupacchiotti mannari che cercano di mangiarti o..peggio! Penso che comunque continuerò la serie, perché la storia continua e ammetto di essere comunque incuriosita dal seguito! Tre stelle perché è stata una vicenda un po' troppo statica con tutta l'azione condensata negli ultimi due o tre capitoli! I like the Anita Blake series. I love Anita's boldness, her brashness, the blood-soaked encounters, and the way Hamilton skilfully blends horror and urban fantasy. What doesn't work so well for me in these novels is the romance, if we can call it that. I didn't mind Jean-Claude lusting after Anita in previous instalments, or even her struggle to resist his otherworldly magnetism. But with the introduction of Richard and the resulting bizarre love triangle, I started to lose patience. I mean, sex is one thing. I'm all for steamy sex and well-written erotic exploits. But Anita wanting to save herself for marriage felt hollow; like an author's contrivance to make sure the tension remains high. Will they or won't they? (We all know they will!) It's like watching a TV show with leads who are clearly hot for each other, but who are kept apart by ridiculous scenarios to ensure people keep tuning in. I will continue with the series for now, but I'm not a fan of being strung along. (And hopefully, neither are Richard and Jean-Claude.) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
