Let me preface this by saying I have enjoyed her previous books...

I recently read Incubus Dreams, by Laurell K. Hamilton.

I would argue, that in that 700+ page creature, there was a 90-page novella in there called Incubus Dreams. I suggest the book be split into two parts... the aforementioned novella, and a pr0n contribution called "Anita Blake does St. Louis".

If it meets the following qualifications, she humped it:

a) Male
b) Vampire or Wereanimal
c) not named "Gregory"

Wikipedia describes the motivation as a "metaphysical emergency". Hoo Nelly, she needs to think up a better game plan that doesn't involve sleeping with vampires she's never met before. 

In the future, should I decide to break your brain, I will repost select dialogue.

I rather liked the series up to that point. Two books previous to Incubus Dreams, I was getting sketchy. Obsidian Butterfly, with its big change in setting and its focus on Edward, was kind of redeeming for me.

Then I read Incubus Dreams, and gave up on the author entirely.

I mean, I *like* my pr0n. I just had hoped for better.

I agree entirely. I like a little pr0n, but this was just excessive, and some of it was just bad... and sometimes I skipped 2 or 3 chapters in a row and missed nothing but horrid writing.

I did read Micah before this... before realizing it comes afterwards... and I'm sort of glad I did, since while there was some relationship angsting, the story was actually decent.
