PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In the final installment of the Sookie Stackhouse series on which HBO's True Blood is based Harris's heroine once again finds herself torn between potential suitors and threatened by a host of supernatural beings. Despite her desire to live a somewhat normal life, the telepathic waitress becomes further tangled in the violence and rivalries of the supernatural realm. After using the magical cluviel dor to bring her friend Sam back to life, Sookie's vampire lover Eric becomes jealous and starts ignoring her. While Sam is coping with the trauma of coming back from the dead, Sookie has bigger problems when her former co-worker Arlene is found dead. Since Arlene had previously conspired to have Sookie killed, Sookie becomes the prime suspect and needs her friends to come to her defense. Harris's wry humor and the novel's strong sense of place in working-class Louisiana shines throughout at one point, "the devil was eating beignets". Amid the fast-paced, action-filled novel, Harris manages to tie up loose ends for the series' large cast of characters and longtime readers will appreciate Sookie finding closure.
Customer Reviews
Good series
Good series and a decent read in itself but I was disappointed in the ending and didn't feel it was very finished and appeared rushed.
And what passes for love is never enough...
I was ok with the way the serie was going but in the beginning of this one my heart just wasnt in it. I'm sad that its over and I wish we could of had a closure with all the other characters of the book (other than their personnal relationships). Like are they all okay with each other? Does some of the final couples will be having kids? And like what the hell happens to Bill? And Bubba? And Desmond Cataliades? And Barry? Does anyone ever those again or does Sookie never see them again ever and thats why there wont be another book? I need closure and lets just say that, the book wasnt enough.
Sadly Disappointed
I loved reading the book... However I felt it lacked substance... No real closure... I felt like it read... Blah blah blah... Where was everyone's ending? It could have easily been the BEST of the series... It wasnt... I felt that the last four books were no match for earlier published books... :(
