Blood Noir (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, Book 16)

OMG! I’m not sure what to say about this except watch at your own risk. I watched most of part one before I was sure my ears were starting to bleed.

This is Laurell K Hamilton reading the opening of Blood Noir at the October 17th Wolf Howl 2007 added to YouTube officially.  The reading is in four parts so follow the links from the first video below.

Two things that struck me about this – one good, one bad.

1. When you hear her reading the book herself, you can actually hear the humour in it which I don’t think comes across in the books at all. I think they are devoid of humour or tongue-in-cheekness that seems to be present when she is reading it aloud.

2. Listening to her little girly voice reading the opening of this book which seems to be a giant sex scene, in great detail, just sounds really really wrong. Just very wrong.
