Why we recommend it

Where Sookie Stackhouse begins: the first vampire bar, the first murder, the first introduction to a world that's been hiding in the dark. Harris writes the dark paranormal from the inside of the ordinary — Sookie is a waitress, the dead are her new neighbors, and the dark is where everything interesting is happening.
