Strange Candy

From a woman who marries into a family of volatile wizards to a couple fleeing a gang of love-hungry cupids, from a girl who seeks sanctuary in the form of a graceful goose to the disgruntled superhero Captain Housework, you'll revel in the many twists and turns of fortune in these unique, sometimes surreal visions. Even hardened vampire hunter and zombie animator Anita Blake gets blind-sided by the disturbing motives of her clients in the new story "Those Who Seek Forgiveness" and in "The Girl Who Was Infatuated with Death."

Sweet and spicy, the stories in Strange Candy are a treat for longtime fans and newfound readers—and will leave you with a craving for more.
