Question: Is anyone else really disappointed in how terrible Laurell K!. Hamilton's Anita Blake series has become!?
I was such a big fan early on!. Then she got too far away from Anita's ability to raise the dead and spent far too much time with Anita having sex with anything that moves!. Even when they said that she was the first necromancer in hundreds of years and could effectively control the vampire population, they still ignored that and went with stories about horny wereleopards, weretigers, werewolves, werecheetahs, werelions and anything else shapeshifty that Anita can screw!. It used to be only part of the story, but now through Hamilton's (convenient) use of the ardeur powers, sex IS the story in all the books she's released recently!.

It's bad enough that Anita has become so predictable that you know what she's going to say before Laurell makes her say it, but she's buried up to her curly so-dark-brown-it's-actually-black hair in hypocrisy!. How can Hamilton write this tripe with a straight face anymore!? I guess she's laughing all the way to the bank!.

Blood Noir's first four chapters are Anita having sex!. At least half of every chapter thereafter is Anita having sex!. Oh, and God forbid it's actually a human once in a while!. No, she's banging every horror movie creature you can think of, then protesting that she's monogamous (HUH!?!?!?) and that all these things can only bang her!.

I think I'll put out my own Anita Blake book!. It's easy enough at this point!. And now, an exerpt from my Anita Blake book, "Drowning Succubus":
I woke up in a big doggy pile with Nathaniel, Jason, Micah, and two wereleopards from my pard that I only met last night!. The scratches all over my back were painful, but nothing compared to the scratches on all of the werebeasts in my bed!. Wow, did I do that!? I was in the middle of the dogpile again - how did that always happen!? I tried to move, and then felt a sharp in my abdomen - the kind of pain that came from having sex with creatures who had very, very, very, very, very large penises!. I managed to get my scarred body out of the bed and to the door!. I opened it, and there was Richard!. Richard looked at me and his power filled the room like the stench of stinky cheese!. "Wow, you're a whore!." My anger rose up in me and my eyes flared!. "How dare you call me a whore," I said, trying to cover my naked body that was covered in blood, slime, and bodily fluids while moving to block Richard's view of the five men in my bed - two whose names I didn't even know!. "She's not a whore," Jason said from the bed!. "Yes she is, and so are you," Richard snapped back!. I turned and looked at Jason and asked him a question with my eyebrows!. "Go ahead," Jason said, giving me permission to be myself!. I don't know why I always have to ask permission from people to be myself, but I do!. Richard took that moment to release his beast, and I released the ardeur, and I had sex with Richard and his very, very, very, very, very, VERY large penis!.

Repeat for 15 chapters!.

Thank you! I thought I was the only one who felt this way! I loved Guilty Pleasures and the next few books after it!. Then one day, I pick up the next book and imagine my surprise when one of my favorite vampire series has turned to second rate paranormal porn!. I can't even reread the beginning books because I know that the senses of humor and well constructed plots don't last!. I am so disappointed in the turn the series has taken!. But it does help to know that I am not alone in my indignation!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yeah it was really good in the beginning then it just became ridiculous! Anita became a slut!.!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

God yes! What in the world was Hamilton thinking!.

Right now I'm in the middle of reading Incubus Dreams, and I just have to say what the F*CK! Are you kidding this book is a piece sh*t!. Anita is a whore who the f*ck came up the ardeur!. Guess what people it''s just a replacement for a plot!. Hamilton is so horny right now that it seeping into her books!. In Incubus Dreams there was not real fight at least not as far as I got!. Oh no, God forbid she actually fight someone!. She beat Primmo by screwing two guy she didn't even know!.

Who would write this sh*t!. Why didn't someone warn me!?! Anita's a slut!. I'm not saying that sex is a bad thing!. But do you remember in the first novels were she was worry about flashing her panties accidentally!. We've got from that to banging anything with two legs and a penis!.

And another thing what happened to her christanity!. Were did that go!? I mean she doesn't care as much about it now!.

I'm half way through the story and she hasn't shot anyone yet! What the f*ck!? She hasn't even talked to the cops!. And if I haven't gotten to it yet I don't think I ever will!. Because like I said I'm only half way through and there's been like three sex scenes!. And she don't say anything about them!. Nathaniel sticks his dick up her while she on the floor with her @ss in the air and she doesn't say anything afterward!. WHAT THE F*CK!?!

And there's six book after this!. It gets worst!?! How you ask!? Well I can't tell you!. I haven't gotten to them and I won't the way thing are going!. From what I heard the rest of the novels, if you can even call them that, are big sexcapades!.

Laurell K!. Hamilton has gotten lazy, and somehow rich!. She not writting novel!. She has written gangbusting porn!.

Where is the crime scene investigating, INDEPENDENT, @ss kicking, take no mess, god fearing, playing with the big dogs, gun shotting, strong, bright, Marshall Blake!. Not the weak, little dependent, whore we see now!. She's a shadow of the woman she once was!.

So yea I'm disappointed!. Does anyone know Hamilton's email address!? I'd like to have a word with her!.
