Synopsis

First time in trade paperback: the third novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling series.

In Circus of the Damned-now in trade paperback for the first time-a rogue master vampire hits town, and Anita gets caught in the middle of an undead turf war. Jean-Claude, the Master Vamp of the city, wants her for his own-but his enemies have other plans. And to make matters worse, Anita takes a hit to the heart when she meets a stunningly handsome junior high science teacher named Richard Zeeman. They're two humans caught in the crossfire-or so Anita thinks.

Very action packed and fast read. I loved the villians and the end battle. The Circus of the ****ed is an intersting place and I hope we keep going back there. I enjoyed the addition of Richard in Anita's love life and how different and the same he is from Jean-Claude.

Goodreads review by Jilly on November 04, 2015

Well, it's not going to be Anita. This girl is obsessed with her Nikes. Nikes are mentioned in this book so many times that if you played a drinking game with "Nike" as your word, you would be smashed by the halfway point of the book. But, don't worry, she always color coordinates her Nikes with a s......more

I am really enjoying my rereading of this series. Going back to the beginning of the series has reminded me why I continue to read along even though it has morphed into another beast entirely. These early books were so great because the men and the sex weren’t the focus of the entire freaking plot. H......more

No le pongo 5 estrellas porque es lo que les he puesto a los dos anteriores leídos y me da vergüenza ser tan generoso, pero le podrían haber caído. En realidad le falla un poco que el ritmo es demasiado vertiginoso y que los personajes son un poco tontorrones, pero la gozas con los diálogos irónicos......more

Goodreads review by Tilly on December 30, 2011

I love Laurell Hamilton’s work. The Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series is outstanding! The first two books in this series, Guilty Pleasures and The Laughing Corpse are amazing pieces of work. This book declares no less awesomeness. This is the book that wraps you around the series and pulls everythi......more
