Our library doesn't have The Killing Dance and I need to know what happens so when I read Burnt Offerings, I don't get confused. I know she doesn't go out with Richard anymore but nothing more.

Richard and Anita were going to have sex, but he wanted to change into wolf form in front of her before they actually had sex. He was afraid she would freak out.

In a fight with Marcus to become the leader of his clan, Richard changes on top of Anita and then he proceeds to eat Marcus and Anita was mind melding with him through their marks so she felt like she was eating Marcus.

It freaked her out and grossed her out and she ran. She ran straight to the Circus of the Damned and she ran into Jean-Claude's arms. They ended up having sex and Richard came in the next morning and found out and got soooo mad.

Of course there was alot more to the story but that is what might confuse you the most if you didn't know about it.

Narniakat, you are wrong. Anita and Richard didn't get the marks until after Marcus was dead. She never feels Richard eating Marcus.

Anita and Richard recieved the marks while Gabriel was trying to rape/kill Anita.

The fact that she was pinned down while he changed on top of her is the biggest thing that freaked her out. More the being pinned under him than anything.

As for what else happenes in the book, AmethystHeart.

The big points in the book are:
1.) Richard kills Marcus and becomes Ulfric of the Pack.
2.) Gabriel & Raina capture Anita in order to use her in a snuff film.
3.) Anita and Richard take the first two marks, which help Anita save herself.
4.) Anita kills Gabriel & Raina in her escape, before going to help Richard and Jean-Claude as they were captured by a vampire.

All, in all, I would say find a way to get the book and read it, but Anita Blake Compendium is usually a decent resource for finding out information, at least up until CS. On the homepage, they have the different covers, click on the cover of the book to get a brief summary.

You are right, thank you for clearing that up. It was the beginning of the joining in the triumvirate powers that helped join Anita with Richard. I was thinking of how she used his powers as they ran through the woods to keep up. It must have been the Cerulean Sins image of Anita tasting Richard's kill that confused me. (At least I think that happened in CS. I need to reread all of them again obviously.) It was the fact that she saw him eating Marcus & his turning on top of her that made her run to Jean-Claude.


If you do get a chance to read it later, AmethystHeart, you should because it is definitely one of the best stories. Anita has assassins after her and Edward gets involved. It is really good. Oh and Anita raises some of Jean-Claude's vamps using the triumvirate's power. The triumvirate is a melding of JC, Richard & Anita's powers.

It's either CS or NiC. Though, I can't remember off hand, though I want to lean towards CS.

TKD is fresh in my head because I just re-read it for an RP I'm part of. ^_^
