I may as well get this started.

Out of curiousity, I was lurking about on LKH's official board, on the Ask Laurell section, and a hopeful fan asked whether or not there will ever be an Anita/Merry crossover. Apparently the official word is that no, not gonna happen, because a) two completely different alternate universes and b) according to Laurell the fae don't exist in Anita's world anyway.

Let me say that again: the Anitaverse officially has no fae.

Um, except NO. LKH wrote an ENTIRE BOOK with fae characters and a fae backstory and just generally lots and lots of fae-ness. And yes, it's an Anita Blake book! Available right at your local bookstore! Yet official word is that it never happened. Nope, whole months of Anita's life aren't canon, nothing to see, move along.

In other words, she just jossed Bloody Bones.

*headdesk*

Yep, right. There are no faes in the Anitaverse....ok, then I fantasized a whole book. *shakes head*
She really needs to re-read her books or have a card-index with all the personal informations of her characters. She don't seems to be able to remember this all and I can understand it, because her books have many characters now. I once read on her official page, that it takes 2 weeks (or so) for her to work herself into the particular "world" and that she tries to separate both series through using different colored notepads. Maybe that's not enough anymore.
Btw, it's the same with Damians age (he "lost" several hundred years in CS) and all the contradictory informations about zombies, especially murdered zombies.
And like always, sorry for my bad english

"one time I ran afoul of a faerie"
It's mentioned more once. So, we all can blacken this sentence, every time Anita speaks about carrying lead ammo? Nice !*takes her pencils out and starts to work*
In my humble opinion LKH has lost some interest in her own series, except for all the sex-scenes and maybe (??) the sales figures. It may sound harsh, but there are so many YAABI's in the books, that I hardly find any other explanation. She don't care about character development anymore or reasonable actions of her characters from one scene to an other. Maybe I'm just too exacting, but I seldom or never saw books with so many mistakes, which could be repaired through a better editing.
