Charlaine Harris' Anthony Award-winning Sookie Stackhouse mysteries have become a fixture on the New York Times best-seller list and have inspired the acclaimed HBO series True Blood. In this ninth adventure, Sookie has just tied on her cocktail waitress apron for a night's work when a special report comes on the television. The time has come. The wereanimals have revealed themselves. When the weres and shifters finally come out, the residents of Bon Temps, Louisiana, must deal with the violent aftermath. But a far greater danger threatens. A race of unhuman beings-older, more powerful, and more secretive than vampires or werewolves-is preparing for war. And Sookie will find herself an all-too human pawn in their battle...

From Publishers Weekly
Telepathic waitress Sookie Stackhouse braces herself for trouble when another group of supernatural beings goes public in her disjointed [ninth] adventure (after 2008's From Dead to Worse). Following the vampires' lead, the shape-shifters decide to step out of the woodwork and announce their existence to the world. While the initial reveal goes smoothly, the brutal crucifixion of a young werepanther behind the local bar makes Sookie wonder if the people of Bon Temps, La., are as tolerant as she thought. Meanwhile, the FBI is asking questions about Sookie's uncanny ability to locate survivors after an explosion, and trouble is brewing among the secretive fae. Harris tries to cram too much into a single story, and even die-hard fans of Sookie's adventures in print and on HBO's True Blood will complain about the plot gaps. (May)

From Booklist
The Louisiana town of Bon Temps—along with the rest of the world—is about to be rocked with some big supernatural news: like the vampires before them, the Were people—humans with the ability to change into animals—are about to reveal themselves to humanity. Psychic barmaid Sookie Stackhouse is apprehensive about the revelation, given the way some people in the small town revile anyone with extraordinary powers, including Sookie herself. While the initial announcement seems to go over smoothly with most people, tragedy strikes when Sookie’s brother Jason’s estranged wife, a werepanther, is found murdered and nailed up on a cross. Jason is the prime suspect, but Sookie has even bigger problems to deal with when she learns that a vicious fairy prince is determined to kill her. Darker and more ominous than earlier entries in the series, Harris’ latest raises the stakes (pun intended) for lovable heroine Sookie and comes up a winner. With HBO’s True Blood, a series based on Sookie’s adventures, renewed for a second season, expect demand for this latest gripping installment. --Kristine Huntley
Review
Praise for #1 New York Times bestselling author Charlaine Harris’s Sookie Stackhouse novels
“It’s the kind of book you look forward to reading before you go to bed, thinking you’re only going to read one chapter, and then you end up reading seven.”—Alan Ball, executive producer of True Blood
“Vivid, subtle, and funny in her portrayal of southern life.”—Entertainment Weekly
“Charlaine Harris has vividly imagined telepathic barmaid Sookie Stackhouse and her small-town Louisiana milieu, where humans, vampires, shapeshifters, and other sentient critters live...Her mash-up of genres is delightful, taking elements from mysteries, horror stories, and romances.”—Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
“The series continues to be inventive and funny with an engaging, smart, and sexy heroine.”—The Denver Post
“Blending action, romance, and comedy, Harris has created a fully functioning world so very close to our own, except, of course, for the vamps and other supernatural creatures.”—The Toronto Star

The Written Equivalent to a Little Old Lady's House: So Much Clutter
By PrincessD
Set approximately three months after the tumultuous events of the previous entry in her Sookie Stackhouse series (2008's From Dead to Worse), author Charlaine Harris' latest release, Dead and Gone, takes off full-speed ahead and never once slows down. Therein lies a very big problem with this book, though...
Unfortunately for the fans of Ms. Harris' usually-compelling series, the result of all her labor last year is just a crazy quilt of frenetic events, as heroine Sookie races from trying to put out one metaphorical fire here to saving someone else's skin (or, heaven help her, her own skin, AGAIN) from another harrowing situation there. The poor girl never gets a chance to stop and catch her breath or regain her equilibrium, and as a result, the entire story shows her behaving in very un-Sookie-like ways (almost as if she's taken way too much cold medicine and is trying desperately--but failing-- to act "normal"). Her interactions with her current boyfriend (Eric the vampire) are notably odd. Her responses to the many deaths that occur are strangely remote. She is disconnected. She isn't amused, nor (sadly) is she amusing. Actually, Sookie isn't even particularly likable here (for the first time in the series!). In short, Sookie is off-kilter in this book, and the reader is left that way, as well.
As difficult as it is to keep up with the hyper pace, Ms. Harris does manage to keep the reader engaged, albeit unsettled. Definitely the most grim and gruesome entry in the series to date, DAG offers up numerous, gratuitously-graphic deaths and horrific surprises (shocks), while also attempting to address long-standing relationship issues. Many fans will be gratified that Ms. Harris continues to show parallels between her fictionalized world and the real one, by spotlighting the harmful effects of prejudice toward persons of different races and sexual orientations. (The fact that she makes her points with a sword rather than a paring knife, figuratively speaking, is rather disturbing, however. Like so many other aspects of this book, such scenes are just uncomfortably over-the-top.)
Yet another problem is Ms. Harris' decision to go out of her way to include several auxiliary characters, no doubt to appease readers who have expressed sadness over certain characters' absence in recent books. Most of these characters are relegated to mere cameo appearances, though, so fans will likely be left rather unsatisfied in that regard; the book, meanwhile, is left with quite a lot of clutter.
Despite Ms. Harris' attempts, there is just WAY too much going on in DAG for one normal-length book, and the reader is left feeling nearly as spent and exhausted upon completing it as poor Sookie is. Hopefully after this aberration (at least, what I can only HOPE is an aberration, and not a harbinger of her future books), Ms. Harris will sit herself down in a nice comfy easy chair, with a big glass of sweet tea by her side, to peacefully contemplate an easier, more pleasant adventure for her heroine's next appearance on the bookshelves. Sookie and company--as well as the readers--deserve it.

This time, war among the fairies
By Steven Peterson
This volume is quite a bit better than the disjointed # 8. Still and all, can we not have a novel conclude without another "war"? This time, two hostile coalitions of fairies, one led by Sookie Stackhouse's great grandfather, go at it, with humans and other supernatural creatures caught up in maneuvers.
Indeed, the war brings out the reality of how the parents of Sookie and brother (now, also a werepanther) Jason drowned. And fairies were intimately involved.
We have a number of crosscutting stories here: the witches living with Sookie; the shapeshifters going public--as vampires had done earlier; the hostile response in some quarters to the preceding revelation; Eric remembering his liaison with Sookie, his knife ceremony with her (the meaning of which is unclear to Sookie: Is she now his wife?); Bill's slow return to her better (if not altogether good) graces; coming to know better her fairy relatives; the murder of Jason's estranged wife; Quinn's brief return; and on it goes. . . .
Much is happening here, as one can tell. The storyline, though, holds together better than what is almost pastiche in # 8 ("All Together Dead"). The future? She wonders which vampire Niall (great-grandfather) refers to when he says at the close (Page 312): "The vampire is not a bad man and he loves you."). What about the knife ceremony and its meaning? Is Quinn out of her life completely? What will develop between Eric and the King of Nevada, who now controls Louisiana? Eric once more shared his blood with Sookie to help her heal from the torture inflicted upon her by fairies; What might the consequences be for her? Many questions yet to be answered. . . .

a lot going on in Sookie's ninth outing
By audrey frances
This is the ninth book in Charlaine Harris's Sookie Stackhouse series, and it is busy busy busy! The book starts off with the weres coming out of their closet, but then most of the book is not about that at all. Then Jason's wife is found dead in a horrific way, but then most of the book isn't about that either. Then Niall (Sookie's fae great grandfather) shows up, but most of the book ... you get my point. I am someone who's defended that there's a lot happening in each book, but it does get a bit frustrating when loose ends aren't tied up. And there are so many interesting characters now that there's no way that most even make an appearance anymore. I also have to say that I'm growing tired of Sookie's relationship woes. Quinn shows up, but it's just a mention and a brief meeting -- so why bother? She seems to have committed to Eric, but there's not much of him either. Frustrating.
Still, I give the novel 4 stars because I love the world and still like Sookie a lot, though there is more time being spent explaining her odd or silly behavior, whereas what I've always liked about her was that she wasn't silly at all. I have mixed feelings and still like the books, but am no longer worried that I'll get deeply depressed when I get caught up with the end of the series. There's enough annoying factors that I'll live til the next one comes out. But I'll scoop it up when it does ....
