Anteprima di Anita Blake

Esce a Giugno in America il nuovo libro della serie Anita Blake, di Laurell K. Hamilton, il numero 22!

Come sapete ormai bene io sono un’assidua di questa serie…pure un poco masochista vistta la piega che almeno da dieci libri ha preso questa serie. Sono sparite le trame ed è tutto un susseguirsi di incontri sessuali di Anita con il suo nutritissimo Harem, poi ora che Marmèè Noir è morta (ed in modo ridicolo dopo tutti sti libri in cui ci era stata presentata come invincibile con un poco di potere e solo due uomini Anita la fa fuori in tre righe scarse….) manca un arcinemico per la nostra eroina….e Jean Claude non compare in modo serio da secoli……..ma….

Ho grandi speranze per questo libro che spero non siano deluse. E vi spiego perchè:

1.Marmeè Noire è morta, quella rompi che sfruttava i suoi poteri e l’ardour contro Anita non c’è più il che vuol dire che forse l’ardour e il suo controllo potrebbe non essere più così centrale nelle trame, il che significa forse meno sesso e più trama.

Inoltre era più o meno con lei come nemico che la serie aveva preso una brutta svolta, forse è la volta buona che riusciamo a riprendere nuova quota e rientrare nella decenza.

2. Le tigri mutaforma erano in cerca di aiuto da Anita (e quindi gli uomini e le donne le si offrivano come cibo per L’ardour e lei le collezionava) per colpa di Marmeè perciò forse ora Anita non ne aggiungerà più di nuove al suo Harem

3. Non mi vengono in mente nuovi animali che Anita potrebbe aggiungere all’harem ormai è più fornta di qualsiasi zoo

Inoltre la trama, che potrete legger qui sotto, sembra promettere una trama realmente trama, conun reale problema da risolvere per Anita!

Speriamo sia vero e l’autrice risalisca la china. Incrocio le dita.

Siccome da ciò che si argiusce dalla trama Anita va fuori cittàò non apparirà purtoppo Jean Claude temo…………..sigh, ma già avere una trama vera sarebbe tanto.

Non appena leggerò il libro vi riferirò.

Titolo: Affliction

Serie: Anita Blake libro n. 22

Trama: Gli zombie che vengono risvegliati devono poi essere resi inanimati e sepolti di nuovo. Questa è la legge. Chedete ad Anita Blake, poichè farla rispettare è il suo lavoro.
 Lei ha sempre considerato gli zombie abbastanza rivoltanti, ma mai particolarmente pericolosi. Non hanno mai causato la morte in agonia di un’essere umano…prima d’ora.
Il padre di Micah, che lui non vede da anni, sta morendo, marcendo a causa di una strana malattia che i medici pensano possano essere un’infezione da zombie. Anita se ne intende di zombie, sono il suo lavoro, dal momento che è una rianimatrice di morti�, ma questi sono di un diverso tipo. Queste creature cacciano di giorno e sono forti e veloci quanto i vampiri. Se ti mordono, diventi come loro.

E’ possibile fermare questa epidemia? Persino Anita non lo sa.

Per concludere il opste ecco qualche quote dedicata a Jean Claude presa dai libri della serie in lingua originale (li tradurrò su richiesta se vorrete, fatemelo sapere in commento nel caso):

“I knew from the moment I heard you, the moment I saw the gun and realized that this lovely, petit woman was the executioner, that you would never die waiting for me to save you - that you would save yourself.”
― Laurell K. Hamilton, Narcissus in Chains

I want to hold and be held. Sex is a wondrous thing, but tonight I wish to be comforted more than pleasured. I feel like a child in the dark who knows the monsters are under the bed. I want to be told it will be alright, but I am far too old to believe such comforting lies.”

“He’s no more human than I am, ma petite.”
At least I’m not dead.”
That can be remedied.”
― Laurell K. Hamilton, The Lunatic Cafe    “I have lived for over three hundred years. In that time, the ideal of beauty has changed many times. Large breasts, small, thin, curved, tall, short, they have all been the height of beauty at one time or another. But in all that time, ma petite, I have never desired anyone the way I desire you.”

In private he’d roll on his back like a cat, hands pressed to his mouth as if trying to drain every taste. It was the only thing he did that was cute. He was gorgeous, sensual, but rarely cute.

― Laurell K. Hamilton, Burnt Offerings    “You’re up to something,” I said.
He turned, eyes wide, long fingers pressed to his heart. “Moi?”
“Yeah, you,”
― Laurell K. Hamilton, Bloody Bones    “There was a time when you would have taken my heart with stake or gun. Now you have taken it with these delicate hands and the scent of your body.”
- Jean-Claude”
― Laurell K. Hamilton, The Killing Dance    “Auggie said you were too sentimental for your own good sometimes.”
Out loud he said, “Perhaps, but you have taught me that sentiment is not always a bad thing.”
I stared up at that impossibly beautiful face, and felt love swell up inside me like a physical force. It filled my body, swelling upward until it made my chest ache, my throat tighten, and my eyes burn. It sounded so stupid. But I loved him. Loved all of him, but loved him more because loving me had made him better. That he would say that I had taught him about being sentimental made me want to cry. Richard reminded me at every turn that I was bloodthirsty and cold. If that were true, then I couldn’t have taught Jean-Claude about sentimentality. You can’t learn, if you don’t have it to teach.
He kissed me. He kissed me softly, with one hand lost in the hair to the side of my face. He drew back and whispered, “I never thought to see that look upon your face, not for me.”
“I love you,” I said, and touched his hand where it lay against my face.”

But I came to see how the two of you enjoyed the play.” “And pigs fly,” I said. “You don’t believe me?” “Not hardly,” I said.” always post: reviewsuser statuses “He laughed, and it raised goose-bumps on my arms. “Oh,ma petite ,ma petite , you are precious.”
Just what I wanted to hear. “So how are you getting here?”
“My private jet.”
Of course, he had a private jet. “When can you be here?”
“I will be there as soon as I can, my impatient flower.”
“I prefer ma petite to flower.”
