This urban fantasy/horror series has been adapted into graphic novels, beginning with the first book in the series Guilty Pleasures. Volume One features Anita Blake, vampire huntress and animator of the dead. Anita has been called on by the Master Vampire of St. Louis to find out who or what has been killing vampires in the city. Anita does not want to take this job, but the Master makes her an offer Anita cannot refuse without her best friend being killed.
The art work and storyline are easy to follow for someone who has not read the novels, and it may convert new fans for the Anita Blake series. The adaptation for issues 1-5 is Stacie Ritchie and issue 6 is Jess Ruffner-Booth, and the artwork is by Brett Booth.
