Definitely Dead Sookie Stackhouse/True Blood Book 6 Charlaine Harris Books

Just like the novels before, this one is jump started immediately. Apparently Sookie has inherited something from her cousin Hadley. For years, the Stackhouse family had thought Hadley was on drugs. Turns out, she was a vampire and now she's been murdered.

Sookie has a new suitor vying for her favor. Quinn is a weretiger who first met Sookie at the packmaster choosing ceremony and it seems that she made such an impression on him that he wants to date her.

So much happens in Louisiana when Sookie goes to collect her cousin's belongings. The queen of Louisiana has made an alliance/marriage with the king of another state. This ceremony happens to be going on during Sookie's visit.

If you think Sookie has led a danger filled life before, then you'll be shocked at all the danger that constantly surrounds her in this book. Not only that, but Sookie faces a horrible betrayal; one that she doesn't believe she'll ever be able to forgive.

I truly loved all the thrilling action in this book. Amazing how far people are willing to go to deceive others and acquire what they truly want most.

Definitely Dead Sookie Stackhouse/True Blood Book 6 Charlaine Harris Books Reviews

Sookie Stackhouse # 6. Many new characters. Much action with many different strands evolving together. As always, the likeable main character, Sookie Stackhouse (who works in a bar), is beat up and survives to tell the tale. Farfetched situations and wacky (and chilling) characters populate this novel.

One set of issues--those who have more than a passing interest in Sookie as a woman (her former lovers, the vampires Bill and Eric; her would-be lovers, Sam and Alcide; her new interest--Quinn). Needless to say, none of the aforementioned "men" is human.

Also, relatives of someone whom Sookie killed in self-defense are using every tool at their disposal to avenge the death of their relative (although they cannot prove that Sookie did the deed). So, she gets beat up and accosted more than once in this subplot.

The story revolves around the death of one of Sookie's relatives, Hadley, who had been a vampire and associated with the Queen of Louisiana. This, in turn, is tied to the marriage of convenience between the King of Arkansas and the Queen of Louisiana. It is clear that this is NOT a marriage of warmth early on! Much of the thrust of events is the playing out of the (not so) hidden hostilities and plans based on Hadley's actions before her death. And Sookie becomes a component of the unfolding plotting.

Things play out, with the denouement featuring her decision to forever cast one of her loves off, even though he had once been important to her. But, there appears to be some hope for romance in her future. Of course, we'll have to see how this plays out in the next volume in this series. I would have liked to have had some of the familiar characters more involved in this novel, but many of the new players are of interest on their own merits.
<Spoilers> Definitely Dead is definitely different from the previous Sookie books in the way the plot develops. This books switches focus at the beginning and shines on the domestic side of Sookie, to get us grounded again in a bit of the personal everyday side of life. In this book, Sookie begins dating Quinn, the Were Tiger, which at the end of the story, results in the cover art. Sookie this time after some disallusionment with Bill, decides that she will pace herself with the romance, and take things slow. Yet slow doesn't necessarily mean not steamy...

Charlaine develops the world of Sookie Stackhouse quite nicely with this book, especially the idea of good witches with powers more akin to Samantha, and the idea of backstabbing political intrigue with the mystery regarding the death of Sookie's cousin Hadley. The whole of the story revolves around the Queen of Louisiana and her marriage to the King of Mississippi, and the former were turned vamp who shows up in typical Sookie fashion in a closet!

Another developmental idea is the idea of Sookie using her powers for good. Not only as an excuse to get her into all sorts of vampire functions, like all the books before, but for actual benefit to the community. The idea of this is so obvious, but for some reason has never occured to me before reading about that in this book. Now some caveats are learned about this activity in the next book, so please relish this little vignette and enjoy it, because it might not happen much in the future.

On the romance side, Eric forces some serious disallusionment with Bill by revealing his secret life as the Queen's spy, and Quinn really finds himself helpless to take the edge off that shocker. Other than that, the romance in this book is slow, and a bit tedious in her pursuit of a guy which we know she wont wind up with in the end. But, if you exercise your patience, you'll stop and notice that Quinn seems nice, and is a refreshing change of pace from Sookie's past beaus.

The action and the mystery combine at the end, as key plot elements come together, and mysteries are solved in the aftermath. People who crave vampire/were blood soaked action will find this story right up their alley, as swords chop chop chop up unwilling victims left and right. I feel like beheading certainly qualifies as the title inspiration of definitely dead.

Emotionally, this book is great. You really feel great depths of despair at Bill's shocking revelation, and a parade of others as this story takes you on unexpcted twists and turns. If there was anything missing it was that true love mushy mushy type stuff which really has been absent since book 1 now that I think about it.

This is a very good book, regardless what others have said. I believe someone said that Sookie wouldn't like 'The Prouducers' which could be realistic since she was going on a date and didn't really get to pick what show she would watch. Charlaine has never been shy about using real world business establishments like Ralph and Kacoo's, and Walmart and apparently is not worried about using real world shows which will date the books. I've always enjoyed the fact that the events in these books supposedly occur just before they are published which leaves them hopelessly dated. I mean, Sookie doesn't have a cell phone for several books...and isn't really keeping up with the information age anyway.

Recommended.
