Introducing Anita Blake, vampire hunter extraordinaire. Most people don't even bat an eye at vampires since they've been given equal rights by the Supreme Court. But Anita knows better--she's seen their victims. . . . A serial killer is murdering vampires, however, and now the most powerful vampire in town wants Anita to find the killer.
From The Publisher:
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...

What really makes Hamiltons books is her characters, it doesn't matter what they are Vampire, Human, Shapeshifter and any mix of those and more, it's how they relate to the world Hamilton has built for them and the relationships they have between each other.
I have almost read every book in the series and I am still as hooked as when I first started. I just want more more more !!!
Her books are all so completely separate from each other yet also completely connected. Hamilton doesn't spend all her time on Anita either, certain books are focused on building other characters as well. I guess it's a lot like real life in that sense you slowly get to know people better some are only there for a short time and others stick around for good.
Hamiltons books have a little bit of every genre to them, although I have to admit the thrillermystery & Eroticism is what really draws me in. Some fans don't like the amount of sex in her books, but I don't find it overwhelming and it doesn't seem to be superfluous.
Please, Please give this book a go and read them in order you will not be disappointed !
The first book in Laurell K Hamilton's Anita Blake series. This book is a great read. Short and to the point it is an introduction to the world of Vampires, Animating and other-worldly creatures that Anita lives in. In a bizarre story-line, vampires are legal beings and do not have to hide themselves from the world which is a refreshing change for any vampire lovers out there. This series should be read in order to best experience Anita Blake.
A great start to the Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter series, with a fascinating world populated by vampires, werecreatures and everything else out of mythology, with a great butt-kicking heroine and an awesome cast of characters. Really draws you in and leaves you hungry for more.
The first in an ongoing series following Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter and Necromancer. There are Werecreatures, Vampires, Demons and its sexy as hell! Laurell K Hamilton creates a surprisingly believable world where the things that go bump in the night exist, she even goes so far as creating a politcal climate with legal and moral issues concerning things such as Vampire citizenship. Guilty Pleasures is a heedy mix of Action, Horror, Mystery and Romance that is really hard to put down
From the very first page,Hamilton draws you into the irresistable sensual world of her deadly vampire hunter Anita Blake and never lets go. Every character is richly drawn and the excitement never lets up.
I could not recommend it highly enough for all readers of this genre.
Brilliant! First book in the Anita Blake series, this one starts with a bang and gets you hooked, you won't be able to wait for the next one so have it ready!
