Living Dead in Dallas

Sookie Stackhouse Southern Vampire Mystery #2

By: Charlaine Harris

Narrated by: Johanna Parker

Cocktail waitress Sookie Stackhouse is having a streak of bad luck. First her co-worker is killed, and no one seems to care. Then she comes face to-face with a beastly creature that gives her a painful and poisonous lashing. Enter the vampires, who graciously suck the poison from her veins (like they didn't enjoy it).

The point is: they saved her life. So when one of the bloodsuckers asks for a favour, she obliges - and soon Sookie's in Dallas, using her telepathic skills to search for a missing vampire. She's supposed to interview certain humans involved, but she makes one condition: the vampires must promise to behave and let the humans go unharmed. But that's easier said than done, and all it takes is one delicious blonde and one small mistake for things to turn deadly....

The Sookie Stackhouse stories are delightful Southern Gothic supernatural mysteries, starring Sookie, the telepathic cocktail waitress, and a cast of increasingly colourful characters, including vampires, werewolves, and things that really do go bump in the night.

Loved It

Any additional comments?

Great narration. I like to list this first as it can make or break a story.

Loved this story. Easy listerning and very entertaining. Will be impatiently waiting for any new books in audio from this author.

I really enjoy it when readers with similar reading interests list their favourite authors and series. It really helps me find new authors too follow. Mine are Charlaine Harris, Jeaniene Frost, Jennifer Estep, Faith Hunter, Molly Harper, Ilona Andrews, Kresley Cole, Deborah Harkness, Nalini Singh, Coreene Callahan and Sherrilyn Kenyon.

Happy Reading

Love this series

Johanna is such a great narrator! All of the accents bring the characters to life! Also love the story. What a great series.

Addicting!

I've never gone through audio books faster than this series. I'm so happy there are still 7 more to go!

The narrator is Sookie personified

Disclaimer: *Minor spoiler alert*
Having watched True Blood (a number of times), the narrator brings Sookie's character to life wonderfully. Quite bummed at the Lafayette turn of events and also how Tara plays into things. Also, a few what heck Godfrey moments and thought that him being Erik's maker was quite special in the series but nevertheless, I'm THOROUGHLY enjoying the roller coaster of events and feel like I'm re-living True Blood in an alternate universe.
Yes. the books came first, I know, but in my world it's the other way around!
Sincerely,
Hook, Line and sinkered

Awesome reading

This series is my favorite of my books. It keeps you wanting more and more. A definite must read for all Vampire fans. Just excellent and the Narrator is excellent.
