Series three is in development and is scheduled for a June start in the US.
Harris’ backlist titles about the psychic waitress’ vampire adventures will be relaunched from 11th February with a new look tying into FX’s promotional campaign for season two. The nine novels will be reissued as £6.99 paperbacks, with a black-and-white look featuring different characters from the show. The £40 eight-book boxed set will be relaunched with the new look.
Also showing off the new designs will be The True Blood Omnibus 2 (featuring titles 4-6, Dead to the World, Dead as a Doornail and Definitely Dead) to be published on 16th September as a £14.99 trade paperback; plus the new title in the series, Dead in the Family, which is published on 27th May as a £12.99 hardback, and the paperback of Dead and Gone (£6.99, 1st April).
A Touch of Dead, an illustrated collection of short stories, is due for paperback release on 19th August but will retain its hardback look.
To support the publishing bonanza, Harris will make her first UK visit on 9th and 10th March. The publisher is hoping to hold a Q&A event and a full media programme.

I prefer the original covers, but I guess people going from TV to the books might be attracted to photos of the TV characters.
I agree Sharon i prefer the original
covers,i wanted the DUD cover and all
you can get is of the characters of
the show.
Ughh,
I LOVE the original covers.
I even love the newer covers with pictures of a model interpreting Sookie (but not those Gothic-themed ones in the UK and Australia where Sookie looks like a grandmother!).
One thing I do not like are television show or movie tie-in covers. Especially when the show is so different from the books!!
I anticipated this, and bought a couple of copies of the books before they stopped selling them with good covers.
