Publisher's summary

A serial killer is hunting the Pacific Northwest, murdering victims in a gruesome and spectacular way. The local police suspect “monsters” are involved, and have called in Anita Blake and Edward, US Marshals who really know their monsters, to catch the killer. But some monsters are very real - and even to speak their name can earn you a death sentence. The bogeymen of the vampire world, The Harlequin, are here in America hunting weretigers and human police. But Edward thinks the serial killings are just a trap - to lure Anita ever closer to the most dangerous vampire they’ve ever hunted...

Love in vein: listen to more tales of Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter.

love this series

i own the series so far but with work schedule and new baby schedule. I don't really have time to sit down and grab my books so I got the audiobooks and I'm so happy that I finally get to catch up on the series.

Back to basics

Anita returns with more plot and less sex. This one is a good read and features Edward significantly.

Very Well Written

Would you consider the audio edition of Hit List to be better than the print version?

Yes. It is better than the print version from the stand point that you can listen to it while doing house work and as a general quiet evening in.

What did you like best about this story?

The fact that Anita and Edward are teamed up again.

What about Kimberly Alexis’s performance did you like?

The emotion that she uses when she reads make you feel like you are right there as the story unfolds.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, so far every one of the series has been listened to in one sitting. But I hated to have to pause it for anything.

Any additional comments?

Can't wait for the next in the series. I have gotten my husband hooked on the series as well.

Brilliant writing... Again!

Would you listen to Hit List again? Why?

Yes, I would listen again when my girlfriend catches up on the series.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Hit List?

Without a spoiler alert - The ending.

Which character – as performed by Kimberly Alexis – was your favorite?

Anita.. as always. Kimberly is brilliant. As I am listening, I feel that I am listening to the characters themselves. I forget that it is one woman playing all the parts.

Any additional comments?

Kimberly has been increasing her use of sound effects to add ambiance to the listening experience and I feel she hit the mark on this book.

Stop playing music please

Love this series, adore this narrator (Kimberly Alexis is amazing overall, anyone who likes that other girl is crazy) but OMG STOP PLAYING MUSIC ALL THE TIME. It’s not cool, it’s cheesy. And really annoying. Stoooop

Nice to travel

Though I would have loved to see what Anita would have made of Pike's Place Market. I am unsure of why those so powerful only wake at dawn.

Anita's constant hesitation

so I understand the need to sometimes refresh the backstory. especially when it takes one to two years between books but if you are doing a audio Blitz which audible easily let you do. it gets very repetitive

Fantastic

It's so good to dive back into Anita's world. The book is the usual Laurell K. Hamilton dose of sex, violence, and butt kicking Anita! But this is the first audiobook I've heard of this series and I need to commend Kimberly Alexis for doing such a fantastic job. The sound effects are fantastic! I really look forward to hearing more from her!
