Dead and Gone: Sookie Stackhouse Southern Vampire Mystery #9

by Charlaine Harris

About this book

Charlaine Harris' Anthony Award-winning Sookie Stackhouse mysteries have become a fixture on the New York Times best-seller list and have inspired the acclaimed HBO series True Blood. In her ninth adventure, Sookie has just tied on her cocktail waitress apron for a night's work when a special report comes on the television. The time has come. The wereanimals have revealed themselves.

But there's an even greater danger threatening Bon Temps. A race of unhuman beings - older, more powerful, and more secretive than vampires or werewolves - is preparing for war. And Sookie finds herself an all-too human pawn in their battle.

Fae's & Supes & Vamps.... OH MY!!! (Major Spoilers!!! Be careful)

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WARNING!!!!! THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS!!!!!!!!! I'm truly baffled as to why there are quite a few readers who did NOT enjoy this book. I started reading the books a few weeks ago and just finished \"Dead and Gone\" yesterday and I can truly say it has been one of the most wild rides since the Harry Potter series.

Dark, intense, and emotionally heavy, Dead and Gone shifts the series into more serious territory. Sookie Stackhouse is pushed to her limits as the fae world collides violently with the human one, and the stakes feel higher than ever. The tone is grittier, with real loss and consequences that linger. Not the light, quirky vibe of earlier books—but if you’re invested, it hits hard and keeps you turning pages. )
