Dead to the World
Charlaine Harris
"With the sure touch of a master" (Crescent Blues),
Charlaine Harris delivers "the sort of vampire thrills that
make Laurell Hamilton's Anita Blake novels so popular"
(Locus). In Sookie Stackhouse, Harris has created a
heroine like few others and a series that puts the bite back
in vampire fiction...
Sookie Stackhouse is a small-town cocktail waitress in
small-town Louisiana. She's pretty. She does her job well.
She keeps to herself and has only a few close friends
because not everyone appreciates Sookie's gift. She can
read minds. Not exactly every man's idea of date bait.
Unless they're undead. Vampires and the like can be tough
to readjust the kind of guy Sookie's been looking for.
Maybe that's why, when she comes across a naked vampire on
the road home from work, she doesn't just drive on by.
Turns out he hasn't a clue as to who he is, but Sookie does.
It's Eric, still as scary and sexyand deadas
they day she first met him. But now that he has amnesia,
Eric is sweet, vulnerable, and in need of Sookie's
helpbecause whoever took his memory now wants his life.
Sookie's investigation into why leads straight into a
dangerous battle among witches, vampires, and werewolves.
But there could be a greater danger to Sookie's
heartbecause the kinder, gentler Eric is very
difficult to resist...
