Living Dead in Dallas (Sookie Stackhouse / Southern
Vampire Series #2) by Charlaine Harris PDF
This is the second book in Charlaine Harris popular
Southern Vampire Mysteries series. Telepathic vampire
maven (and cocktail waitress) Sookie Stackhouse has
been tasked with locating an abducted vampire and
suppressing an upstart anti-undead religious cult.
This is one terrific read. Harris has created a
charming and winning character in Sookie Stackhouse
cocktail waitress, telepath, and girlfriend of a
vampire. Stackhouse lives in a different world, one
where vampires, werewolves, and assorted other mythical
beings actually exist. She is beholden to the local
Louisiana nest of vampires and is sent by its head,
Eric, to help the nest in Dallas. It seems that one of
their vamps has disappeared and they need a telepath to
track him and possibly save him. She dutifully follows
Bill to Dallas where they stay at an interesting
vampire hotel complete with windowless rooms and
synthetic blood. In Dallas they discover a fanatical
religious cult that is vehemently opposed to vampires
and is trying to destroy them or, better yet, get them
to destroy themselves. Sookie has to dive headlong into
this mystery before she gets to try her hand and her
mind at solving the murder of a fellow worker back
home. Harris creates wonderful characters, an inventive
plot, and terrific situations. She has a real feel for
the world she has created and allows the willing
suspension of disbelief to do its job. Her work is
reminiscent of Laurel Hamilton and her Anita Blake
series but much less dense. It also reminds a reader of
Tanya Huff s work and has the same light touch. There
is plenty of sexual tension between Sookie and her
boyfriend but also between Sookie and Eric, who also
wants her for his own. At the same time there is a joy
and an innocence about the work that make it very
appealing. (A Southern Vampire Novel)
