Headline Review is publishing the entire Anita Blake series here in the UK and this is the UK edition for Flirt, which is to be published January 2010. I really like all the new covers and I definitely like this one more than the US version. What do you think?

Flirt (Anita Blake #18)

Laurell K. Hamilton
Headline Review
January 2010

Summary (Amazon UK)

When Anita Blake meets with prospective client Tony Bennington, who is desperate to have her reanimate his recently deceased wife, she is full of sympathy for his loss. Anita knows something about love, and she knows everything there is to know about loss. But what she also knows, though Tony Bennington seems unwilling to be convinced, is that the thing she can do as a necromancer isn’t the miracle he thinks he needs. The creature that Anita could coerce to step out of the late Mrs. Bennington’s grave would not be the lovely Mrs. Bennington. Not really. And not for long.

The UK versions are definitely more interesting and appealing.

The old US versions were too sexual (especially for the early books that didn't lean towards erotica) and now the new US versions they're releasing are just colorful tools for torture. Neither tells you anything about the series.

I love the cover! It makes me wish Antia Blake was one of the series Canada got in UK versions – I greatly dislike the new US covers, and wish they'd stuck with the old format.

What a gorgeous cover! Looks almost like it's in 3D. The UK covers are usually much, much better than the US covers!
