| Federal Marshal Anita Blake, vampire hunter and zombie raiser, is worried that she is pregnant. She has no idea who the father is, since she is sleeping with three vampires, two were-leopards, and one werewolf. She is part of a triumvirate with Jean-Claude, Master Vampire of St. Louis, and Richard, the werewolf leader of his pack. Together they are stronger than they are apart.
However, the ardeur, a magical essence that needs sex to feed it, is growing more powerful inside Anita; and she needs to keep feeding it, or it will start selecting its own victims. As Anita’s powers grow, so do those of the other two members of the triumvirate, While Anita looks for someone she is not metaphysically attached to so that she can feed the ardeur, masters of the cities from all over the United States are coming to St. Louis to attend a vampire ballet hosted by Jean-Claude. Not all of the attendees are friends; some want to gauge how powerful Jean-Claude is with his two allies at his side, while others want to use Anita for their own ends. Unless Anita can control her ardeur their enemies might defeat them. Every Anita Blake book is a fantastic urban fantasy and Danse Macabre is no exception. Readers wonder who amongst the guests is an adversary that the trio must deal with at a time when Anita is not at her best, between the pregnancy and the increasingly out of control ardeur. This is a fabulous action-packed storyline filled with characters readers have come to think of as friends. There is an irony in the Anitaverse. There is no prejudice among humans or within a species group, but racism exists between the supernatural races and ordinary humans towards the preternatural races, due to fear of their powers. | |||
