Micah: An Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter Novel by Laurell K. Hamilton
2.0
Okay. Here goes.
Empty calories are all fun, but after awhile, you get malnourished, starve, and die.
I really enjoyed the introduction of Micah's character to the series. He was refreshing after reading Richard and Claude. So I had high hopes when I opened this book. I was hoping to get a better sense of Micah and to see perhaps his relationship with Anita deepen. But none of it happened. Yes, we got a little bit of a preview into Micah's background. But not much else happened other than sex. I guess I was just hoping for more of a connection; some clarity and maybe some growth. Wait, maybe some real plot. I should have known better considering the direction that Ms Hamilton has taken her series.
Like someone caught in a destructive cycle, I kept reading the series. After Micah's first introduction to the series (I picked up the series this year), when I found out there was a book titled Micah, I endured it in hopes of reading Micah's role developed. Then I get to Micah (the novella really) hoping to see Micah's role in Anita's life finally blossom more fully, but nope. None of that. Just Anita screwing.
I'm done with Ms Hamilton's series. I hope somewhere in nonfiction world, that Micah is spreading his wings, healing, finds his life partner, and is a strong and just leopord king.
