Definitely Dead
by Charlaine Harris


The long-awaited Definitely Dead, the further adventures of Sookie Stackhouse, cocktail waitress and telepath, has arrived. With Bon Temps in the grip of wedding fever – but not, alas, Sookie’s – our heroine travels to New Orleans to close out her cousin Hadley’s apartment. (Have you read the short story that sets this up, “One Word Answer”? It was in the anthology BITE.) Hadley’s landlady is a forthright witch, and the two young women uncover a big surprise when Hadley’s place is unsealed.

This was worth the price of a hard-cover. I love this series and hope that it continues. It may be made into a series in America - let's hope so. I'd love to see it. Sookie appears to have a real, breathing boyfriend at the end of this novel and a good friend. Plus she gets even further involved in the politics of the supe world.
