Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Who is the Earthmover?

Answer: Mr. Oliver

Mr. Oliver/Earthmover can make the ground tremble with just a thought. He is a council member.
2. A giant cobra runs amok and kills several people at the Circus. What was the name of (the now deceased) snake charmer?

Answer: Shahar

Shahar gets very dead--but not eaten! The snake eats a couple of others.
3. What is the name of the first vampire victim in the book?

Answer: Cal Rupert

Cal is found dead from multiple vampire bites.
4. It turns out all the vampire victims are members of a radical group. What's the group?

Answer: Humans Against Vampires

HAV are trying to make vampires illegal again.
5. What is Melanie?

Answer: Lamia

Yes--Oliver's animal to call is the snake & thus he has some powers over Melanie. A lamia is a half-snake, half-human. They are supposedly extinct. Oh, yes. And very, very poisonous.
6. Who is challenging Jean-Claude's authority in St. Louis?

Answer: Alejandro

It is all part of a plot to take over the city.
7. How old is Mr. Oliver?

Answer: 1 million years

Mr. Oliver is the oldest living vampire--about a million years. That makes him not homo sapiens but homo erectus. Cool.
8. In the final showdown, a vampire gives Anita all four marks. Who does it?

Answer: Alejandro

According to Jean-Claude, it is impossible to be marked by more than one vampire at a time. But, of course, it happens to Anita. A side effect of this was that it wiped out all the marks she was carrying from Jean-Claude. So once she survives gutting Alejandro--she is free of all vampire marks.

It is common knowledge that to kill a vampire, it kills the human servant also and vice-versa. But Anita survives, because she is one tough cookie.
9. How does Anita find out that Richard is a werewolf?

Answer: He gets his throat ripped out and survives.

Since Richard is alpha, he is very good at hiding what he is. Since people tend to die on Anita all the time, she considers that it may be a benefit that only silver can kill him.
10. Why does Jean-Claude give Anita the third mark?

Answer: She's dying from Lamia poison.

Anita is furious and scared. It is what prompts her into betraying Jean-Claude to Mr. Oliver. Anita would rather die than be bound to Jean-Claude. Richard was the one who brought her to Jean-Claude for him to save her. The third mark is where the vampire drinks the blood of the servant. Once Anita realizes that Mr. Oliver is planning a bloodbath as soon as he has control over the city vampires, Anita allies herself with Jean-Claude again.
