Description

Rafael, king of the wererats, must fight to the death to defend his crown. He wants Anita Blake, one of his closest allies, with him as he faces an opponent unlike any he’s faced before. He will ask Anita to risk everything to be at his side....
 
But some of the wererats fear that Rafael depends too much on Anita and her ties to the vampires. They believe that there is only room in America for one supernatural king, and Rafael will turn them into nothing more than food for the bloodsuckers.
 
Among his enemies, a new challenger has arisen who is younger, hungrier, and has dark secrets that could destroy both the wererats and the vampires. Rafael will go into the magical heart of his people to find the power and violence that he needs to save them all, or die trying.

    The Anita Blake series is by far one of the best and my favorite. This new is based on Rafael and the wererats it been a long time coming cause they were major in the series at first but died out and now back in a major. You will love it!!

    After the last couple of books, I wasn’t even going to buy another. Glad I did. Short but way better than those prior two atrocities. Gives me hope for the future of Anita Blake.
  • Good but short

    I have read and enjoyed the whole series for the most part. This book was a good balance of the things that I feel make this series great. It just felt short.
  • Another thrilling adventure!

    I liked the involvement with the rats. Plus rats are cool.
  • Too short

    Maybe I’m spoiled, but I’ve really enjoyed the author’s longer stories. For the price paid it should have been full length, but it seemed half the size. The story also seemed to end abruptly, instead of having any epilogue. The story itself was good, but the author has done much better in the past. Read her book Obsidian Butterfly which she makes reference to in this one and you’ll really have a meaty and well written novel to read.
  • A decent read

    Having read EVERY book in this series, I wasn’t disappointed but it wasn’t the best chapter in Anita’s life. I won’t give any spoilers except to say Laurell has calmed the 20 page sex scenes down dramatically, thankfully. I hoped for a bit more action, as some of the earlier stories were full of it, but I finished it in 2 days so although the later chapters felt a lil rushed it is still a good read.

    I was a little iffy when I preordered this one because I just wasn’t honestly sure if I would enjoy an Anita book with the wererats at the front and center. I was so enthralled by this book from the first couple of chapters that I wasn’t able to put it down until I finished it. Glad to see that even though this was a book surrounding the wererats we still got to see a good bit of our other characters in this one. And some lovely scenes all around. Great read! I recommend the Anita Blake books to everyone I know who loves to read! Best collection yet. I can’t wait for more!
