About this listen

Cocktail waitress Sookie Stackhouse is having a streak of bad luck. First her co-worker is killed, and no one seems to care. 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).

The point is: they saved her life. So when one of the bloodsuckers asks for a favour, she obliges - and soon Sookie's in Dallas, using her telepathic skills to search for a missing vampire. She's supposed to interview certain humans involved, but she makes one condition: the vampires must promise to behave and let the humans go unharmed. But that's easier said than done, and all it takes is one delicious blonde and one small mistake for things to turn deadly....

The Sookie Stackhouse stories are delightful Southern Gothic supernatural mysteries, starring Sookie, the telepathic cocktail waitress, and a cast of increasingly colourful characters, including vampires, werewolves, and things that really do go bump in the night.

As always Johanna Parker's narration sucks me deep into the story and where other audio-books have been a struggle for me to visualize this audio-book is not one of them, The plot of this book was a wild ride in all the best ways and it was lovely to get to know more about Eric and see a side of him we've only glimpsed in previous books. Like the first book Living Dead in Dallas balanced humor and the darkness of the supernatural world excellently! Overall an amazing listen and I look forward to listening to what happens next for Sookie Stackhouse and the vamps of Bon Temps (and the surrounding area)

Another engaging installation in the series!

I really enjoyed this audio book. I loved the first book, Dead Until Dark, and had the usual trepidation that the follow up wouldn't be as good. Well, not the case with this one. I loved the Dallas setting and there was as much action and steam as the first. Also, Johanna Parker narrates perfectly. The signature voice she gives each character remains constant thoughout the whole book. All in all, a real winner. I couldn't bring myself to press pause on my Iplayer!!! Worth every penny.

Great follow up

Everything I read I remember, everything I hear I remember...

So as you can imagine I will consume a book and move on never to return, this series of books however are the only ones I have gone back through multiple times. This is because the characters are so intricately designed they become real, the story lines while based in fantasy from the off never fail to surprise and thoroughly delight. I have never had such an all round almost tactile experience from something that I've read to make me come back to them so often and with that first time read anticipation it's nuts because I remember every word already.

They are utterly hilarious, full of blood-pumping action and downright hot in equal measure with so many more facets that will have you also coming back time and again.
The books do not copy the T.V. Show plot line they are completely different the anchors for both being the familiarity of the main characters but both being superb in their own ways.

A definite BUY IT NOW! you certainly will not regret it

Truly not an experience to be missed!

The book was brilliant so I don't want to mark it down any in star rating but it's really infuriating that the chapters in this audiobook don't match up with the chapters in the book even though the person who's been recorded says chapter 7 for example but the chapters are grouped together in 2 large blocks of audio instead of being 2 separate chapters.

I have some difficulty reading the novels but the narrator make this work come alive. It's a fantastic story and a pleasure to listen to.

After watching the True Blood series at least three or four times, it’s a real treat to actually listen to the books.
It’s great being able to listen to the readers fantastic accents and put faces & names from the series to the book characters.
