Ardeur

14 Writers on the Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter Series
Edited by Laurell K. Hamilton

A deeper look at the world that's kept readers fascinated since Guilty Pleasures

Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series is a literary sensation, thanks to its strong female hero and unabashed attitude toward sex. The world Hamilton has created is powerfully compelling and stunningly complex—and it gets deeper, richer, and more perilous with every book.

Ardeur takes you further into Anita's world. Inside you'll rediscover:

  • Why the ardeur is the very best thing that could have happened to Anita (even aside from all the sex it requires her to have with hot men)
  • The series' dark humor, from Nikolaos' bad breath to the occasional absurdities of juggling so many men
  • Anita's journey from monster-killer to "monster" in her own right, and how her transformation to sympathetic succubus turns the traditional horror genre upside down
  • Plus the language, the vampires, the werecreatures, and much more!

Hamilton herself supplies an introduction to each essay, providing extra insight on her characters and her world.
