Our view
For readers of the “Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter” series, “Burnt Offerings” is a dark seventh volume of vampire and werewolf intrigue. Some of them find the large cast hard to keep apart, and others miss the crime-solving of the earlier novels. Horror, mystery and erotica are mixed throughout these books, and this one takes knowledge of the six before it for granted.
