Anita Blake

Guilty Pleasures (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter: Book 1)

by: Laurell K. Hamilton

My name is Anita Blake. Vampires call me The Executioner. What I call them isn't repeatable. Ever since the Supreme Court granted the undead equal rights, most people think vampires are just ordinary folks with fangs. I know better. I've seen their victims. I carry the scars...

But now a serial killer is murdering vampires -- and the most powerful bloodsucker in town wants me to find the killer...

The Laughing Corpse (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, Book 2)

by: Laurell K. Hamilton

The older the zombie, the bigger the death needed to raise it.

After a few centuries, the only death "big enough" is a human sacrafice. I know, because I'm an animator. My name is Anita Blake.

Working for Animators, Inc., is just a job - like selling insurance. But all the money in the world wasn't enough for me to take on the particular job Harold Gaynor was offering.

Somebody else did though - a rouge animator. Now he's not just raising the dead....he's raising Hell.

And it's up to me to stop it.....

Circus of the Damned (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, Book 3)

by: Laurell K. Hamilton

"Most women complain that there are no single, straight men left. I'd just like to meet one that's human."

I'm Anita Blake, expert on creatures of the night. I've dined with shapeshifters, danced with werewolves, and been wooed - but not won - by Jean-Claude, the Master of the City.

And now a darkly dangerous vampire named Alejandro has hit town. He wants me for his human servant. A war of the undead has begun. Over me.

The Lunatic Cafe (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, Book 4)

by: Laurell K. Hamilton

You don't volunteer for slugfests with vampires. It shortens your life expectancy.

And you don't fall in love with a werewolf. It interferes with your work. Especially when you're a preternatural expert, like me. My business brings me up close and personal with all shapes and sizes of monsters. And not all of them want to kill me.

Take, for instance, the local pack of lycanthropes -- that's werewolves to you. A number of them are missing, and they've come to me for help. Maybe because I'm dating the leader of the pack. I've survived a lot -- from jealous vampires to killer zombies -- but this love thing may kill me yet...

Bloody Bones (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, Book 5)

by: Laurell K. Hamilton

When the monsters are involved, it's never just one dead body. One way or another the dead multiply.

First, there were the dead in the graveyard, two-hundred years dead. I'd been hired to raise them to settle a dispute over who owned the land they were buried in. Then there were the three dead teenagers in the woods, slaughtered in a way I had never seen before. And then they found the dead girl, drained of blood and left in her bed. I knew what that meant, all right. It didn't take a degree in preternatural studies to figure out that something was very wrong in and around Branson, Missouri. And I was right in the middle of it. My name is Anita Blake. Welcome to my life...

The Killing Dance (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, Book 6)

by: Laurell K. Hamilton

The first hit man came after me at home, which should be against the rules. Then there was a second, and a third. Eventually, I found out that the word on the street was that Anita Blake, preternatural expert and vampire killer extraordinaire, was worth half a million dollars. Dead, not alive. So what's a girl to do but turn to the men in her life for help? Which in my case, means an alpha werewolf and a master vampire. With professional killers on your trail, it's not a bad idea to have as much protection as possible, human or otherwise.

But I'm beginning to wonder if two monsters are better than one ...

Burnt Offerings (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, Book 7)

by: Laurell K. Hamilton

"You can't trust anyone who sleeps with the monsters."
That's what I've always said. That's what I've always believed. But now I'm the one sharing a bed with the Master Vampire of the City. Me, Anita Blake. The woman the vampires call the Executioner. From part of the solution, I've become part of the problem. So it hits close to home when an arsonist begins to target vampire-owned businesses all over town -- an arsonist who seems to want to destroy more than just property. It's the monsters who are in danger now. And it's up to the Executioner to save them from the inferno ...

Obsidian Butterfly (An Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, Book 9)

by: Laurell K. Hamilton

Edward was a hit man.
He specialized in monsters. Vampires, shape-shifters, anything and everything. There were people like me who did it legal, but Edward didn't sweat the legalities or, hell, the ethics. He was an equal opportunity killer. I may be one of the few friends that Edward has, but it's like being friends with a tame leopard. It may curl on the foot of your bed and let you pet it's head, but it can still eat your throat out....

Cerulean Sins (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, Book 11)

by: Laurell K. Hamilton

It was October, seven days before Halloween. A busy time of year for raising the dead. You can raise zombies any day of the year.

Incubus Dreams (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, Book 12)

by: Laurell K. Hamilton

As consultant to the Regional Preternatural Crime Investigation Unit, Anita's called in on what appears to be a case involving a serial killer - a vampire serial killer - who may be preying on strippers. She's sure that none of the local vamps are responsible - but her judgment may be clouded by a conflict of interest. For she is, after all, the consort of Jean-Claude, the ever-intoxicating Master Vampire of the City - something that both her human friends and her ex, the alpha werewolf Richard, are quick to point out.

Micah (Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter, 13)

by: Laurell K. Hamilton

It was half past dawn when the phone rang. It shattered the first dream of the night into a thousand pieces so that I couldn't even remember what the dream had been about. I just woke gasping and confused, asleep just long enough to feel worse, but not rested.

Nathaniel groaned beside me, mumbling, "What time is it?"

Micah's voice came from the other side of the bed, his voice low and growling,thick with sleep, "Early."

I tried to sit up, sandwiched between the two of them, where I always slept, but I was trapped. Trapped in the sheets, one arm tangled in Nathaniel's hair. He usually braided it for bed, but last night we'd all gotten in late, even by our standards, and we'd all just fallen into bed as soon as we could manage it.

Danse Macabre (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, Book 14)

by: Laurell K. Hamilton

It was the first week of November. I was supposed to be out jogging, but instead I was sitting at my breakfast table talking about men, sex, werewolves, vampires, and that thing that most unmarried but sexual active women fear most of all - a missed period.

Veronica (Ronnie) Sims, best friend and private detective, sat across from me at my little four-seater breakfast table. The table sat on a little raised alcove in a bay window. I did breakfast most mornings at that view out into the deck and the trees beyond. Today, the view wasn't pretty, because the inside of my head was too ugly to see it. Panic will do that to you.

The Harlequin (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, Book 15)

by: Laurell K. Hamilton

Malcolm, the head of the Church of Eternal life, the vampire church, sat across from me. He'd never been in my office before. In fact, the last time I'd seen him, he'd accused me of doing black magic, and being a whore. I'd also killed one of his congregation members on church grounds in front of him and the rest of his congregation. The dead vamp had been a serial killer. I'd had a court order of execution, but still, it hadn't made Malcolm and me buddies.

Blood Noir (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, Book 16)

by: Laurell K. Hamilton

I cuddled in against Jason's body, and he hugged me with arms and legs, and for once it wasn't sexual in the least, it was more like two scared kids huddling in the dark when they knew the monster under the bed wasn't just real, but was holding a grudge.

A favor for Jason, vampire hunter Anita Blake's werewolf lover, puts her in the center of a fullblown scandal that threatens master-vampire Jean- Claude's reign
-and makes her a pawn in an ancient vampire queen's new rise to power

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

by: Laurell K. Hamilton

I'd worked my share of serial killer cases, but none of the killers had ever mailed me a human head. That was new. I looked down at the head, ghostly, through the plastic bag it was wrapped in. It sat on my desk, on top of the desk blotter, like hundreds of other packages that had been delivered to Animators Inc., where our motto was, Where the Living Raise the Dead for a Killing. The head had been packed in ice, for all the world like some employee of the postal service had done it. Maybe they had, vampires can be very persuasive, and it was a vampire that had sent the package. A vampire named Vittorio. He'd included a letter with my name written on the envelope in lovely calligraphy: Anita Blake. He wanted me to know who to thank for my little surprise. He and his people had slaughtered over ten people in St. Louis alone, before he fled to parts unknown. Well, not unknown now, maybe. There was a return address on the package. It had been mailed from Las Vegas, Nevada.

Either Vittorio was still there, or it would be another of his disappearing acts. Was he in Las Vegas, or had he mailed it from there and would be somewhere else by the time I gave the information to the police there?

No way to know. I could still hear our day time sectreary, Mary, being hysterical in the other room. Luckily we had no clients in the office. I was about thirty minutes away from my first client of the day, and my appointment had been the first of the day for Animators Inc., lucky. Mary could have her breakdown while our business manager, Bert, tried to calm her. Maybe I should have helped, but, I was a US Marshal, and business had to come first. I had to call Vegas and tell them they might have a serial killer in town. Happy fucking Monday.
