Review: Obsidian Butterfly

Obsidian Butterfly by Laurell K. Hamilton

My rating: 2 of 5 stars


This book side-steps the continued story of Anita Blacks relationship to the two men in her life, by taking her out of St Louis to pay back a favor to her former tutor Edward.
The story is fairly good, but also fairly predictable.
My main problem with the book is that it adds nothing to the overall story of the series, which any book in a series as prolific as the Anita Black series has been and especially at such a crucial time in the main characters life.
In the previous book Blue Moon Anita has learnt that the two most important men in her life has lied to her and taken action on learning more on her own, but in this book she suddenly drops everything without reason to help Edward solve a paranormal murder mystery. She drops all attempts as self discovery, which is completely out of character for her.

The series has really turned out to be a learning experience for an aspiring author.
