If you like vampires, then this is a treasure trove for you. Although the last two entries in the book tend to drag it down just slightly, the one entitled 'Galahad' would not do so if it were less, shall we say - biologically correct? Ms. Knight does exhibit true creativity in re-inventing the Grail quest, much more so than certain best sellers.

If you buy the book just to read Ms. Davidson, Ms. Harris, and of course Ms. Hamilton's contributions, you will not waste a dime. Ms. Harris and Ms. Davidson both have down to earth humor that will tickle and charm you. Anita Blake fans will be thrilled to get an anthology story that does not merely reprint a chapter from one of the long books. Taking place between Blue Moon and Obsidian Butterfly, 'The Girl Who Was Infatuated with Death' returns fans to a classic period of Anita's characterization.
