A review by wyemu
Burnt Offerings by Laurell K. Hamilton

3.0

Hamilton's series has gotten increasingly more sexual as it's gone on and this book continues that theme. Having left Richard for Jean Claude Anita can finally give into her passions for the sexy master vampire. Unfortunately this gets Anita a lot of backlash from her police friends who fail to distinguish the shades of grey that make up the preternatural forces, an opinion Anita used to share with them. While a lot of the tension in the book appears unnecessary, apart for the thrill factor it produces, Hamilton does build up some back story for the vampires as a race, and Jean Claude's personal history. Clearly things with the vampire council aren't over and more will be appearing about them in books to come.
