"Tiresome sex" and the Anita Blake series.

[modernwizard]

Apparently the Anita Blake series started off interesting and slid into porn. For example, an Amazon reviewer savages Narcissus in Chains, a midstream book in the series, as follows: "This book brings in a new character, the male Nimir-Raj of another were-leopard pack, with whom Anita immediately has sex. And there's mental sex, virtual sex, interspecies sex... it gets downright tiresome. You never knew sex could be this boring." HAH!

Maybe I should go back and read some of the earlier books in the series? I keep confusing them with Nancy Collins' Sonja Blue series, which memorably has vampire protagonist at odds with her vampirism, personified as a sleek and crazy killer that squats in her mind and talks to her under its breath. I would reread Collins again just for Sonja's internal dialogs.

Can't stand either series. The Meredith Genry series revolves around sex.. I mean the main plot {if you could call it that} Is that she has to get Knocked up before her cousin. So there's healing sex,giving you magical powers sex,midget sex...ect ect.
I also tend to find her characters to similar .. all the men are tall broad shouldered and long hair. bleagh

Sorry . I just can't stand the author
