  <default-description>Except for Sookie Stackhouse, folks in Bon Temps, Louisiana, know little about vamps&#8212;and nothing about weres.

Until now. The weres and shifters have finally decided to reveal their existence to the ordinary world. At first all goes well. Then the mutilated body of a were-panther is found near the bar where Sookie works&#8212;and she feels compelled to discover who, human or otherwise, did it.

But there&#8217;s a far greater danger threatening Bon Temps. A race of unhuman beings&#8212;older, more powerful, and more secretive than vampires or werewolves&#8212;is preparing for war. And Sookie finds herself an all-too human pawn in their battle.

I hadn’t realized some of the people I knew were werewolves because I didn’t comprehend there was such a thing.

    <body><![CDATA[Sookie is back and once again she is in a whole heap of trouble.  What I liked about this book was the resolution of a couple of different story lines.  <br/><br/>I am glad that Octavia and Niall are out of the picture.  Sookie's house was just getting too full with Octavia and Amelia, who has gro...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/72486328">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Finally a little Eric/Sookie payoff although I still want more.  As much I like that relationship, I am also starting to rekindle the idea of Bill and Sookie.  Lots of questions answered, and revelations I had assumed books ago made.

    <body><![CDATA[There are times when I wish I could read people's minds. I imagine it would get tiresome after awhile--not to mention the headache! And would I be able to block out the voices and images that flood my mind? I am sure there are some thoughts I would rather not be privy to.

    <body><![CDATA[I felt that Sookie spent most of this book in such a state of shock that it actually took away from our enjoyment of the story. I think it was very realistic on Sookie's part that she spent so much time yo-yo-ing between her usual characterization and utter shock, but it meant you ended up disappoin...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/61789659">more...</a>]]></body>
