Known for her darkly violent, stunningly erotic Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter novels, New York Times bestselling author Laurell K. Hamilton reveals new dimensions of her talent in these fantastical fairy tales, lush parables, and Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter stories. Share her vision as she welcomes you to the far corners of her "fertile imagination" (Diana Gabaldon)...
From a woman who marries into a family of volatile wizards to a couple fleeing a gang of love-hungry cupids, from a girl who seeks sanctuary in the form of a graceful goose to the disgruntled superhero Captain Housework, you'll revel in the many twists and turns of fortune in these unique, sometimes surreal visions. Even hardened vampire hunter and zombie animator Anita Blake gets blindsided by the disturbing motives of her clients in the never-before-published "Those Who Seek Forgiveness" and in "The Girl Who Was Infatuated with Death."
"Hamilton just keeps getting better and better." - St. Louis Post-Dispatch
This is an exciting collection of fantastical, fascinating, and funny short stories from Hamilton's gifted pen. Cynthia Holloway does an expert job with the many strong female characters that are the author's stock in trade. Each story begins with a short historical vignette from the author, which Holloway delivers so well we feel we're listening to the author herself provide the broad context for the story to come. Holloway also does a skillful job with audio effects, such as a voice from a radio or a public address system or someone on the other end of a phone conversation. An enjoyable listen--even for those not into the more well-known vampire-hunter series from Hamilton. M.C. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
