Jason is a werewolf. He's also one of Anita Blake's best friends and sometimes her lover. And right now he needs her - not to be a vampire hunter, or a federal marshal, or a necromancer, but because his father is dying. Anita can make him look like an everyday guy, helping him say good-bye to the abusive father he never loved. The fact that Jason is not 'everyday' and Anita is far from being just a pretty woman is something they figure they can keep under wraps for a couple of days in a small town. How hard can that be? Really, by now, Anita Blake should know better. And this is the weekend that Marmee Noir, ancient mother of all vampires, picks to make a move. Somehow she has cut the connection that binds Anita and vampire Master of the City Jean-Claude, leaving them vulnerable. Dangerous even as she sleeps, buried in darkness for a thousand years beneath the old country of Europe, Marmee Noir reaches out toward power - she has attacked Anita before, but never like this. Anita has what she wants - and now she's going to take it. (from amazon.uk)For a more detailed Summary, see here

- enter any details that are revealed in this book that prove to be pivotal to the series.
- These might be considered spoilers...so a warning should be included and a smaller font used or a color change.

- I am expecting these to be 'facts' from the books, for example in GP we learn that it takes 4 vampire marks for a human to become a 'servant' of the vampire and we get some detail as to what they are. We also learn that Anita has 2 favorite guns, the Browning and the Firestar.

Laurell has put up 4 videos of her reading the first 3 chapters of Blood Noir on her Myspace. It's the first 2 fully and 4 pages into the 3rd chapter. If you're interested it was really cool to hear her reading it. The myspace is at www.myspace.com/laurellkhamilton.

Are you all getting as excited as I am for Blood Noir to come out, it seems like May 27th Will never get here! but atleast that day is closer than the first thought June 3rd (though that would have been an awesome early bday present for me). I can't wait to get an even better look at Jason, he's not been in as much focus for the last few books, and I for one have missed him.
