(read as: her editors still, you know, edited). I was just happy with the book because we didn't have the plot be dominated by Anita's stupidity re: Jean Claude and Richard, and watching Edward be a family guy was...weird fun. SCARY weird fun.<br /><br />So yeah, I'd say that was where the tone shift was, but Narcissus in Chains was definately where the quality got thrown out the window.

Didn't like it and couldn't understand how it gotten published. Read next book in series, even worse, and next book after that. My mind would continuously be blown by how LKH would try as hard as possible to out-bad the last book with awful sex and that terrible, clunky dialogue.<br /><br />Then I read the early Anita books and I just...the dramatic shift between early Anita and later Sex-Monster Anita is just amazing. I almost convinced that someone else wrote those early books. I can't understand how a writer could write something like those early books then completely switch gears within the space of two books (Obsidian Butterfly and this one...really, this is the one where everything changes).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
