| Incubus Dreams (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter: Book 12) by Jove WOW (in a bad way) | | First off, this is the lowest review score I have ever given I dont usually do bad reviews...I dont know where to start but to say others arnt exagerrating this book is not up to the standards of the others. I will admit I wanted there to be more sex, more bedroom type fun ;) I had no idea that when it came everything else would suffer a GREAT deal! She screwed everyone and please no more its "tight...he's so big" please ANITA stopped being tight a while back lol and lucky her all her men are sooo biggg. So is it worth reading, yeah its barely ok, I would try to get it from a library im selling my entires series...I will continue to read it probably im very forgiving but its just not the same she has a Harem of supposably ALPHA males who are complete chumps,sex toys, and weak....WOW...and WOW what the heck is up with Anita the only way I was able to finish it was to Skim. | | Incubus Dreams (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter: Book 12) by Jove WoW! | | There are porn directors out there that are saying " This book needs more plot and a little less sex". I do not know how I actually got through half of this book , but I did and it was one big sex scene. There was about a page and a half devoted to a mystery, but after that it is Anita and the "ardeur" all the way. I sent this book back to the library ( I have not spent money on an Anita Blake book since " Obsidian Butterfly") unfinished, which is something I rarely do. I did decide to check out " Danse Macabre", and it seems to be better. There is still way too much time on the stupid "ardeur", but wayyyy less than " Incubus Dreams". My advice to a reader is to skip " Incubus Dreams" and either go on to "Micah" or " Danse", because this book does nothing for any of the characters and does not add to the storyline whatsoever. Or, if you want to be really smart, check out a new author like Keri Arthur, Charlaine Harris or Kim Harrison. They do some really solid work in the supernatural/mystery/romance line. | | Incubus Dreams (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter: Book 12) by Jove Anita, get dressed already. | A really weak book.
Practically no plot and way too much sex.
Believe me, I don't begrudge Anita her sex life with all the beautiful and supportive were-men. I was delighted when she overcame her prudery and hang-ups - how long can you whine about a cad that ditched you back in college, after all.
This book, however, really overdoes it. First there are hundreds of pages of "we have to talk" scenes and endless discussion of everybody's sexual needs. Then there are hundreds of pages of sex. Towards the end there is (finally!!) a mention of bad guys and a brief visit to a crime scene that solves nothing.
I really wish Anita would put on some clothes and go back to work. | | Incubus Dreams (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter: Book 12) by Jove Not as good as the previous books... | I don't mind sex scenes...even if some are graphic (the first time Anita and JC are together is HOT). However, this book was just a string of graphic sex scenes, one right after another. I love the characters in this series of books. I hope the author returns to her earlier plot and character driven writing style and stops relying on graphic sex to sell.
| | Incubus Dreams (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter: Book 12) by Jove I gave up, | | I gave up on page 345 (of 722). The mystery hasn't been mentioned since page 24, and Anita has had sex with seven men so far. This from the character who wouldn't sleep with her fiance six or seven books ago. There is no plot, only poorly written, highly improbable, overly detailed sex scenes strung together with dull dialog and cliches. It's mind-numbing. The author has taken a great premise for a series and thrown it away. There are too many books in the world to give this series any more of my time -- I'm done with Anita Blake. | | Incubus Dreams (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter: Book 12) by Jove Product Description | | Anita is pushed to her limits-both professionally and passionately-when she is called in on what appears to be a case involving a vampire serial killer preying on strippers. | | Incubus Dreams (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter: Book 12) by Jove Amazon.com | | As Incubus Dreams opens, Anita Blake may be America's most powerful vampire hunter and necromancer. So it's no surprise that the Regional Preternatural Crime Investigation Team seeks her assistance when a St. Louis stripper is murdered and the evidence points to unusual serial killers: a group of seven vampires. It appears a master vampire has gone rogue--and may prove too powerful for Anita Blake, even if she can gain help from not only her vampire consort, Master of the City Jean-Claude, but from the wereleopard king Micah, her other lover, and the alpha werewolf Richard, her bitter ex-lover. It would be an exaggeration to say that Laurell K. Hamilton's Incubus Dreams is just one sex scene after another. This twelth novel in her bestselling Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series presents a wedding, a murder, and a lot of relationship angst before getting down and dirty on page 89; and the sex scenes pause on page 377 to let the mystery plot resume. The series deftly blends elements of alternate history, horror, romance, erotica, and mystery, but anyone reading Incubus Dreams for the murder plot is going to be frustrated. However, Incubus Dreams is a considerably stronger and more interesting book than its talky predecessor, Cerulean Sins, and fans will enjoy the many new developments in Anita's complicated love life. --Cynthia Ward Amazon.com Exclusive Content Interview with the Vampire Writer
 With two bestselling series featuring supernatural heroines under her belt, one has to wonder if Laurell K. Hamilton is truly in touch with a world beyond ours. Hamilton spoke with Amazon.com about her work, her characters, and her plans for the future. |
