Amazon.com Review
As Incubus Dreams opens, Anita Blake may be America's most powerful vampire hunter and necromancer. So it's no surprise that the Regional Preternatural Crime Investigation Team seeks her assistance when a St. Louis stripper is murdered and the evidence points to unusual serial killers: a group of seven vampires. It appears a master vampire has gone rogue--and may prove too powerful for Anita Blake, even if she can gain help from not only her vampire consort, Master of the City Jean-Claude, but from the wereleopard king Micah, her other lover, and the alpha werewolf Richard, her bitter ex-lover. It would be an exaggeration to say that Laurell K. Hamilton's Incubus Dreams is just one sex scene after another. This twelth novel in her bestselling Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series presents a wedding, a murder, and a lot of relationship angst before getting down and dirty on page 89; and the sex scenes pause on page 377 to let the mystery plot resume. The series deftly blends elements of alternate history, horror, romance, erotica, and mystery, but anyone reading Incubus Dreams for the murder plot is going to be frustrated. However, Incubus Dreams is a considerably stronger and more interesting book than its talky predecessor, Cerulean Sins, and fans will enjoy the many new developments in Anita's complicated love life. --Cynthia Ward Amazon.com Exclusive Content Interview with the Vampire Writer
 With two bestselling series featuring supernatural heroines under her belt, one has to wonder if Laurell K. Hamilton is truly in touch with a world beyond ours. Hamilton spoke with Amazon.com about her work, her characters, and her plans for the future.
Product Description

I like the Anita Blake series so my review is going to be slanted.
So I will leave it at this is a book with Adult situations in it.
 Please do away with the ardeur!! January 24, 2010

I have read Ms. Hamilton's Anita Blake books all the way from the beginning, but I simply could NOT finish this book. I tried twice, and finally gave up. I mean, the main character goes from being at times overly prudish to becoming a complete slut. The so-called ardeur takes over the entire plot until you forget what the plot actually is! It all just becomes another reason for Anita to have gratuitous sex with...whoever! Don't get me wrong. I LOVE the hot scenes in the books, but come on! And on a side note...the bestiality was a little much. Needless to say, I will be skipping this disaster and moving on to the next book, IF I decide to keep reading LKH at all!
 Not as bad as I thought it would be, but... January 2, 2010

I enjoyed this one more than I thought I would (based on the reviews), but the problems in it outweighed much of my enjoyment. The plot wasn't interesting or substantial enough (in most of the book) to balance out the sex scenes. Or I should say the very long, overly detailed, this-is-why-I'm-having-sex justifications before actually having the sex scenes. Whew... I wanted to say, just do it and move on... the over-justifying was painful to watch. That said, Anita does finally come to terms (mostly) with her need to have more than one man in her life (finally... I can tolerate a lot from a character, but enough angst is enough already), and Richard redeems himself a little in this book. However, the repeated phrases, over-description, and over-justification just seemed to bog the book down too much. I'm still interested enough to read the next in the series, though, so it wasn't a total waste of my time.
 Ridiculous, pathetic, and not even slightly exciting December 21, 2009

The Anita Blake series was recommended to me, and I've been plowing through the increasingly awful books. Blue Moon was OK, the rest are repetitive and overdependent on descriptions of her guns, knives, eye color, hair length, and clothing. But this one is the limit, a wannabe porn joke. I keep trying to figure out WHAT the author was thinking. Did she think this would be funny, watching the character add more and more partners, in sillier and sillier sex scenes? It really is just pathetic; The Executioner, a slave to her powers and her libido, screwing anything and everyone that moves, in any way possible, because if she doesn't her minions will die. Oh puhleaze. Not funny, not sexy, not thrilling, not interesting, not worth checking out of the library, much less paying actual money for this book. Amazing that so much sex could be so very very boring.
Loved it December 16, 2009
