information
about the book
Anita Blake, the tough, sexy vampire executioner, zombie animator, and police consultant for preternatural crimes in St. Louis, hunts monsters in New Mexico in the ninth book of Laurell K. Hamilton's excellent series. Edward, Anita's mentor in slaying, asks Anita to return the favor that she has owed him since she killed a backup he brought in to protect her. He needs Anita's preternatural expertise as well as her firepower. Something is skinning and mutilating a few of its chosen victims, and dismembering others. Edward has no idea what creature could be responsible for such heinous crimes.
Summoning Anita has its downside for Edward, since it means letting her onto his turf. Anita is surprised to find that this normally aggressive man has a personal life, and shocked by his ability to be entirely different from the stone cold killer she's known. She also has problems with the cop in charge in Albuquerque, who believes her powers must be evil, and with the other backups Edward has brought in. Most of all, she has to deal with her own vulnerability--she's tried to shut down her ties to her vampire and werewolf lovers and go it alone, but it turns out to be harder than she thought.
Anita's usual supporting cast is missing, and she's taking time out from her complex love life, but there's plenty of bloody action, vampires, werewolves, and Aztec ritual. Plus a lot more about Edward.

book & listing
So why like Obsidian Butterfly enough to make a fanlist and/or join it? Well, to me, this particular novel is one of the, if the not the, best written of the Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series. It has action, new vampires, lots of guns, kidnapping, family, and Edward. We finally get to see the other side of Death himself, and that's really great. While I have no qualms about the St. Louis crowd, it's also a great break from the drama of all that. Many people say that this is a "return" to the old Anita plotlines from the first few books of the series. Perhaps, but it's a great stand-alone book when all's done and said.
And the title. Just gorgeous.
