Book Description
Danger makes the world go 'round in Laurell K. Hamilton's bestselling novels. Just ask Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter. Right now, her problems lie with her ex-fiancé—a werewolf who just got arrested on an assault charge. His guilt or innocence is not the issue. The fact that there's a full moon on the rise is....
"I wondered what Jean-Claude would think of me dropping everything to go rescue Richard....
"It didn't really matter. I was going, and that was that. But I did spare a thought for how that might make my vampire lover feel. His heart didn't always beat, but it could still break. That's love. Sometimes it feels good. Sometimes it's just another way to bleed."

- The above list order may be modified at any time to accomodate new participants or those who withdraw from the ring. So you should always refer to the list included in this journal entry before mailing the book after you've finished with it.
- After messaging the next person in the list for their address, you should allow at least a week for a reply, to allow for vacations, etc. You may also want to send more than one PM if they don't reply the first time since BookCrossing PMs sometimes get lost in transit. In Search Of (ISO) posts in the Bookring Forum also work well. And of course, remember to check their profile page in case they've posted news of their whereabouts, or an email address that is more reliable than BookCrossing PMs. If you still haven't heard from them after 1-1/2 to 2 weeks, skip them and move on to the next person in the list.
- Please post a journal entry here (1) when you first receive the book so we all know it has arrived safely, and (2) after you've finished reading it and are ready to send it along. Of course, please include your thoughts and opinions on the book itself too. :)
- For courtesy sake, please try not to keep this book for more than 4-6 weeks as others are also waiting to read it. If you don't think you can get to the book in that timeframe, you can request to be skipped over and/or added to the end of the ring instead. Just use your best judgement so as not to hold up the ring for all the participants waiting behind you.
- Late particpants are welcome—PM me if you'd like to join. Be sure to specify which bookrings you'd like to join, as well as your shipping preferences. If you're joining the ring after it's already begun shipping, know that your place in the list will be determined based on your geographic location in conjunction with what is best for the other participants.
- Please do not ask to join any of my rings if you're not a responsible and reliable BookCrosser. If you happen to see someone in the list who you believe is questionable, please let me know immediately. I do research names I don't recognize and use a number of methods for spotting bad Crossers, but I certainly appreciate any additional info.
- Remember that at the end of the list, THIS BOOK SHOULD BE RETURNED TO ME, not released into the wild. I enjoy rereading my favorite books over time, and lend them out to other people in my life too, who are not necessarily members of BookCrossing.
- Note that while I'll certainly take your shipping preferences into account during list ordering, I don't like to stick the same people with International shipping costs every time, particularly for a series of 10+ books such as this. So if you plan to participate in the rings for the entire series, at least 10 of which will be International, I may ask you if you'd be willing to ship Internationally even if you've requested not to at the beginning. I'll try to minimize this, especially if I have enough International shippers to pass the cost around to, but just in case, I figured I'd bring it up so you're not surprised if I approach you about it later.
- In addition, I like to ask the US participants of my rings who are shipping overseas to consider all shipping options in addition to surface mail. Particularly with lightweight books such as these, Air Mail or Global Priority Mail (GPM) is sometimes a more efficient shipping option for certain countries, sometimes costing as little as 50 cents more, certainly worth it to cut the shipping time down by a month or two. I've even come across a few cases where the small GPM envelope (into which these books fit) is even cheaper than surface mail!
THANKS AND HAPPY READING!
Books 5 thru 8 of the Anita Blake series are heading off to NeedSun in Canada later today (22-Dec-2005) via Air Mail.
The bookrings aren't going to start right away... I need the 4th book to get a little further along first. J, I'll be in contact with you directly to let you know when it's safe for each book to leave your nest and begin it's journey. :) (I need to allow a bit more time between each book like we did between books 3 and 4; the first 3 were too close together and arrived out of order to some people because of that.)
Enjoy these... and the other little goody I enclosed for ya. Happy Holidays!

I received the box of books just before New Years Day. I can't wait to read these, the next four in the Anita Blake series. When I emptied the box I also found a beautiful bookmark. Cherie, thank you so much.
I thought it was time for this book to start moving. It was a little slow in parts but certainly answered some questions I had about Anita.
Thank you,Cherie, for allowing me to hang on to this book for so long. I just got a reply from thegoaliegirl requesting to be skipped so I will PM Morpha right now.

Just checking in with this book. Margih still has book 7 and this one is still on hold.
Finally...this book is continuing it's journey. I sent it by air today to Rhenium3.
Thank you again, Cherie, for sharing this series with me.

look forward to reading! :)
Anita is awesome, as always! :) PMed the next on the list so it can continue on its journey around the world!
The book is here! Will read this fairly soon as I'm very curious about what will happen next in the life of Anita.

I liked the way Anita found out more about the marks and also that her relationship with Richard moved forward. What I really like about this series is magic and figuring out mysteries and not the plentiful sex, so with a little less sex the rating would have been higher.
I have the address for Gypsyrose02 and will send it to her very soon.

I felt this one was different to the others. For a while there i found quite afew of her books to be roughly the same. Needless to say i was getting bored.
I enjoyed this one. There was no jean claude. It was more about anita bonding with the packs. Learning more about herself and her power. A lot of new characters and seeing more of the lesser characters which i enjoyed. I love how they all lover her, need her and comfort her. Who wouldnt want that?
She has also mellowed quite a bit. Doesnt come across as so macho now. She admits when shes scared now. She states in the book that she is becoming more monster, but emotionally she is becoming more human!
Thanks cherie pie. Its now on its way to gategypsy.
