A Touch of Dead

Bestselling author Charlaine Harris re-imagines the supernatural world with her Sookie Stackhouse novels—the inspiration for the hit HBO® series, True BloodSM. Now, for the first time, Harris gathers into one volume every short story she’s ever written about her telepathic waitress. In “Fairy Dust,” fairy twins Claude and Claudine hire the feisty telepath to determine which one of three suspects killed their sister. It’s “Dracula Night”—the master vamp’s birthday—and Sookie is invited to the celebration…only the Dracula who shows up may not be the real thing. In “One Word Answer,” news of her cousin’s murder arrives with a lawyer who has an ulterior motive for his mission. With a rabbit’s foot and well-cast spells, Sookie’s insurance agent keeps his clients “Lucky.” But his luck may run out unless Sookie and witch Amelia can catch whoever’s been prowling through his files. And in “Giftwrap,” it’s Christmas Eve; a lonely Sookie is feeling sorry for herself when a wounded werewolf gives her an unexpected present. With notes on where they fall in the series’ timeline, these five tales shed light on little facets of Sookie’s life, making A Touch of Dead a welcome addition to the Stackhouse canon.

let down

Really wanted more from this book. I thoroughly enjoy Charlaine Harris, but this book was a big disappointment for me.

just another review
November 09, 2009

This book was ok but I felt like it was just another review. The author repeats herself alot in her books and I love the Sookie books. I tend to skip paragraphs because of the repeating. I was very very excited to get this book and then I was so let down to realize it was just a repeat of books. I was very confused when I started the book because it was talking about the twins and how they used to be triplets and how Sookie didn't know them. I did not know it was going to be a back in time book. It did answer some questions I had though. I was just a little disappointed. Still love this author.

Although I'd say this book was a tease. It cleared up some questions about earlier stories. However, Gift Wrap was too smooth, hooray for Grandpa!!!!!

I liked reading the short stories. It just made you want to read the books over again. I wish there were more than just a few stories, I read it so quickly.

I love this series

I was disappointed with the latest book. I have been anxiously waiting for weeks for A Touch of the Dead. I was expecting something like the last few. While I like the tieing up of the loose ends I would have liked to see a longer. I was disappointed it was so short but its only because Im such a big fan. I hope she will write more to this saga.
