The Lunatic Cafe - Laurell K. Hamiltonová
''You don''t volunteer for slugfests with vampires. It shortens your life expectancy.''And you don''t fall in love with a werewolf. It interferes with your work. Especially when you''re a preternatural expert, like me. My name is Anita Blake. My business brings me up close and personal with all shapes and sizes of monsters. And not all of them want to kill me.Take, for instance, the local pack of lycanthrops - they''re werewolves to you. A number of them are missing, and they''ve come to me for help. Maybe because I''m dating the leader of the pack. I''ve survived a lot - from jealous vampires to killer zombies - but this love thing may kill me yet.

''These days my life is a cross between a preternatural soap opera and an action-adventure movie.''The first hit man came after me at home, which should be against the rules. Then there was a second, and a third. Word on the street is that Anita Blake, preternatural expert and vampire killer extraordinaire, is worth half a million dollars. Dead, not alive. So what''s a girl to do but turn to the men in her life for help? Which in my case means an alpha werewolf and a master vampire. With professional killers on your trail, it''s not a bad idea to have as much protection as possible, human or otherwise.But I''m beginning to wonder if two monsters are better than one...

The Harlequin - Laurell K. Hamiltonová
''They will play with us, then destroy us... They are what we fear in the dark.''The first warning is unexpected, calculated. The second warning is a gift: a plain white mask, carefully wrapped. But white is good - white means we are only being watched. It seems the power that connects me, Anita Blake, with Jean-Claude Vampire Master of the City and Richard, leader of the werewolves, is attracting very unwelcome attention - from creatures so feared no vampire will willingly speak their name. They are known as the Harlequin, and they have the authority to pass judgement upon me. It is forbidden to speak of the Harlequin unless you''ve been contacted. And to be contacted is to face a sentence of death.

The war would last eight years, and though at least one in ten of the Americans who fought for independence would die for that cause, the prize was valuable beyond measure: freedom from oppression and the creation of a new republic.Rick Atkinson, author of the Pulitzer Prize–winning An Army at Dawn and two other superb books about the Second World War has long been admired for his unparalleled ability to write deeply researched, stunningly vivid narrative history.
