Dead in Dixie

Dead Until Dark: Sookie Stackhouse is a cocktail waitress in Bons Temp, Louisiana. You can tell she doesn’t get out much, and it’s not because she isn’t pretty. She is. It’s just that, well, Sookie has this “disability:” she can read minds. And that doesn’t make her too dateable. Then along comes Bill. He’s tall, dark, handsome—and Sookie can’t hear a word he’s thinking. Just the guy she’s been waiting for all her life. But Bill has a disability of his own: he’s a vampire with a seriously creepy crowd of friends. So when one of her coworkers is killed, Sookie fears she’s next…. Living Dead in Dallas: Sookie is on a streak of bad luck. First, she finds a body in the backseat of her car. Then she comes face-to-face with a beastly creature that gives her a painful and poisonous lashing. Enter the vampires, who graciously suck the poison from her veins—like they didn’t enjoy it! Point is, they saved her life. So when one of them asks for a favor, she complies…and soon Sookie finds herself in Dallas, using her telepathic abilities to search for a missing vampire. There’s just one condition: the vamps must behave, and let the humans involved go unharmed. Which is easier said than done…. Club Dead: Sookie’s vampire boyfriend, Bill, has been a little distant lately. In another state, distant. He’s on a secret assignment for the vampire queen of Louisiana, and only his sinister and sexy boss Eric knows where to find him. Soon, Sookie is off to Jackson, Mississippi, to mingle with the über-underworld at Club Dead—a dangerous little haunt where werewolves, shapeshifters and vampires go to chill out and suck down some type O. But when Sookie finally finds Bill—caught in an act of serious betrayal—she’s not sure whether to save him…or sharpen some stakes. Warning: Explicit sex and language. Jacket art by Julie Bell. (612 pp.) 2001-2003. Exclusive 3-in-1 Hardcover Show...

Dead by Day

Sookie Stackhouse is a smart, savvy waitress in a small Southern town. Her ability to read minds gives humans the creeps. So her old boyfriend, Bill, seems perfect for her: since vampires are dead, Sookie can’t read their minds. At last, she’s with a man who might surprise her. But when the pair breaks up, Sookie hopes she can go back to her uneventful, pre-vamp existence. As if. In Dead to the World, Sookie starts the New Year off with a bang by finding Bill’s “boss,” vampire Eric, running half-naked through the woods. Seems someone stole mighty Eric’s memory—and dropped the gorgeous and now vulnerable vampire right into Sookie’s lap. Eric might end up the only friend Sookie’s got, especially after her brother, Jason, goes missing—and a bloody footprint is found behind his house. Before she can say “Boo!”, Sookie finds herself in the middle of the most violent, bloody turf war that vampires, witches and werewolves have ever known…. In Dead As A Doornail, somebody is gunning for the two-natured, and if Sookie gets in the way, so much the better. Shifters are going down, and her brother, Jason, is a suspect. A wicked new vampire named Mickey has his lethal sights set on Sookie, and her old boyfriend Bill—and newer vampire love, Eric—will fight to the death to save her. Sookie hopes they don’t kill her in the process…. Warning: Explicit sex. Jacket art by Julie Bell. (419 pp.) 2004-2005.
