Dead to the World (Original MM Art): A Sookie Stackhouse Novel (Sookie Stackhouse/True Blood) Specifications

From Emma Bull's War for the Oaks to Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series, from The X-Files to Buffy the Vampire Slayer, creators are mixing old European myths and legends with modern American pop culture. Incorporating influences ranging from blaxploitation movies and erotic novels to tabloid staples like UFOs and Elvis, authors and directors are creating a new mythology for the strip-mall, tract-house, cell-phone America of the new millennium.

One of the best-known and best writers of the new American mythology is Charlaine Harris. Dead to the World is the fourth novel in her Anthony Award-winning Southern Vampire series. It continues the story of psychic waitress Sookie Stackhouse, who has fallen out with her undead lover, Bill. Bill has no sooner departed for Peru, than Sookie finds the head vampire, Eric, running naked and terrified through the rural night. She helps Eric, and discovers his memory has been destroyed by a coven of unscrupulous, astonishingly powerful witches, newly arrived in her small Louisiana town, and offering a huge reward for Eric. Sookie tries to hide Eric, but her brother sees him--and immediately disappears. And Sookie finds herself caught in a war among witches, vampires, and werewolves. --Cynthia Ward

Customer Reviews

I read all the books except Sookie Stackhouse Dead in the Family (IM at the county library waiting list), and this is my favorite so far! The plot is really good, the fight against all evil witch / Eric loses his memory / observation thing Jason really connect well with each other and ensure a good thriller / action / romance.
Sookie is still proclaims his latest break with the Vampire Bill, if hes going to Peru. home from work the next day, she points Eric, another vampiredo sprints on the side of the road, wearing trousers and nothing else in the middle of the night of January. He stops to give him a ride and discovered that amnesia. She returns to her home and calls his second in command, Pam and Chow. They show the same time as Jason, the brother of Sookie, there are posters to announce the return of Eric. Pam and Sookie Chow offering $ 50,000 to hide Eric. you agree and say that witches drinking VampireBlood was Eric amnesia, as punishment for rudely refused to give them a fifth of its business. To make matters worse, Jason disappear after a few days in bed with a girl leopard. Sookie will be able to help defeat the witch to save her brother, and keep falling for this new Eric, a lonely, scared, sweet version?
This was a great book with a great plot, characters, mystery and romance. As avid fans of Sookie / Eric, I was ecstatic with them to certain developments* Wink *. I suggest the book on any event for any fan of this series and Eric.
