" Compared to the couple books directly before this in the Anita Blake series, I enjoyed this one more (once I had the time to sit down and read it). Now that there are more established relationships between characters, the dynamics seem to be more detailed especially where it concerns the new triumvirate the powers they don't know they have. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately?) I read a spoiler in the afterword for a book a few books forward in the series, so now I'm a bit intrigued where this is all going, yet slightly scared. (Scared especially when it comes to the kinky sex parts, which I shouldn't be scared of, I've read the entire Merry Gentry series so far after all...) "
