Oh, Amazon. I'm Insulted.

 You're aware of my buying history; do you actually think I am unaware of the Anita Blake series?

Secondly, the reprint cover of the first book?





Is a blatant rip-off of the reprinted Dead Until Dark cover as wells as the True Blood credits. And it doesn't even make sense for Anita Blake to be smoking.

Fail.

I keep planning to get back into that series. Anita lost me in The Laughing Corpse when she made SUCH a big deal about her Christianity vs. the evil Voodoo priestess. It wouldn't have bothered me as much if I didn't get that underlying vibe that religion had ANYTHING to do with the fact that she was raising zombies and killing people.

That being said, the new Cover is painfully lame.

Do yourself a favor, qualapec, and DON'T get back into the series. Dead serious about that. If you think that's bad, there's shit in the later books that'll make you want to bludgeon yourself to death.

Well, thanks for the Mr. Yuk sticker :)

I wouldn't get back into the series; they stories devolve into badly done porn and lose all trace of a plot.
