About this listen

First time in trade paperback: The fourth novel in the number one New York Times best-selling series.

Vampire hunter and zombie animator Anita Blake is an expert at sniffing out the bad from the good. But in The Lunatic Cafe - now in trade paperback for the first time - she's about to learn that nothing is ever as it seems, especially in matters of the not-so-human heart.

Dating a werewolf with self-esteem issues is stressing Anita out. Especially when something - or someone - starts taking out the city's shapeshifters.

Critic reviews

"The zombie-raising business gets slow in December, so Anita Blake is starting to see some oddball cases. She's got a neatly typed list of eight missing lycanthropes given to her by Marcus, the leader of the local werewolf pack, who wants her to find them. The trouble is, Anita's occasionally furry boyfriend Richard is locked in a power struggle with Marcus. Jean-Claude, master vampire of the city and Anita's other love interest, is getting jealous as well. To top it off, Anita has to solve some horrific murders and keep her bounty-hunting friend Edward from killing Richard and Jean-Claude. Hamilton alternates between funny and fearsome in this larky series about a monster hunter with a few dark secrets." (Amazon.com review)

I've been re-listening to these book from start to finish with my husband. He is not exactly a reader but he is totally in to these books. I'm so happy I have finally found a way to get him to "read" these! This book was amazing! I love the sound effects, they go with the story perfectly. And the narrator is Phenomenal! Can't wait to start the next one!!

Anita is still my all time fav!

LOVE the narrator! Sometimes as much as I love the storyline and book the narrator can kind of ruin it. The narrator draws you in and before I knew it I had been listening for hours. Loved the story. Amazing mystery!

Great mystery!

I'm here for the story which does lag a little, but overall a good read or listen. The sound effects and music kinda yank me out of the story. in my opinion sound fx should not be in a story being read.

Sound effects?

I am a long time fan of Laurell K Hamilton and the Anita Blake series. I’ve read all of them and when searching for my next good listen decided to revisit favorites. The only thing I would change about this is to add a little more Jean Claude. Otherwise action and Anita is a strong female lead who doesn’t get too angsty.

Worth a read and a listen
