Sookie Stackhouse
submitted by Jen Chapin-Smith on August 17, 2013, 9:07pm
The tenth of Charlaine Harris' 12 Southern Vampire Mysteries, "Dead in the Family" continues the adventures of part-fairy psychic waitress Sookie Stackhouse in the small town of Bon Temps, Louisiana.
This one features Eric's maker, Appius Livius Ocella, a vampire from the Roman Empire. Appius has also turned Alexei Romanov (that's why no one ever found the little prince's body!) and brought him to Bon Temps. The maker is in Louisiana to try to get the Viking back under his control, which becomes a problem for Eric and Sookie in this and later books. Meanwhile, Bill is dying from silver poisoning after saving Sookie's life, and Vampire King Victor wants Bill, Eric and his progeny, Pam, dead.
Read the first nine Sookie books or you'll never understand the numerous, complex plot lines in this novel. Don't expect a nice, neat, complete ending, either. Even her 12th and latest novel in the series does not give us that.
Harris was originally contracted to write 10 Sookie novels, but extended the series. So, those who enjoy the books should probably be glad that "Dead in the Family" is not the last one.
