"this is one of my favourites.....and not because it's amazing, as Anita books go it's still only good not great. Nate, (my favourite character) comes into it. meeting him when you do opens up all kinds of problems for the weres, but Anita can fix it."

" This book is fascinating and awesome and totally stellar!!! I can't wait to get the next book. I love how strong she is in the book and how she is so secure. "
— berberalert14@gmail.com, 5/4/2017" I took a break for a while from Laurell's books and picked this one up... it was ok - I got about 3/4 the way through before skimming. No sex. I have a problem with the fact that Anita Blake instantly said she loved What's his name Jean Claude (sp?) Shr avoided and ran from him for six books - now she loves him? Please. "
— Jenna, 2/14/2014" It seems to be an ongoing problem with the author -- she starts out developing something new (firebug!) and then vampire politics swamps the narrative. Sigh. I give this one points for bringing Larry back, partly because Larry's a nice reminder that this series started out about necromancy, and partly because Larry's a nice emotional foil for the increasingly "practical" Anita.

— Licha77x7, 1/11/2014" I was really excited to read this book again because Nathaniel is finally introduced! And so is Asher! It was a really great read. Non stop action. Now on to the next, Blue Moon! "
— Danielle, 1/1/2014" I do love this series, some are better than others. I like that the author introduces new characters that you just know will be important in future books. Not my favorite....but good! "

— Maggie, 9/27/2013" The vampire council was interesting and I like the little bits of history we get about Vampires and Jean Claude. I like meeting Asher and seeing all of the lycanthropes in this one. A lot of action and kept my attention throughout. "
— Robin, 8/11/2013" There should be a big ol' Warning: Rape sticker on the front of this one. "
