Don't get me wrong. I love all of these books but I just felts rushed around a lot through this one.To start Sookie is tending bar with Sam at Andy and Portia double wedding, then she in the wedding. Bills with Selah, but still finds and tells Sookie that he would give anything to lie with her again. We met Jonathan, an Asian Vamp. We meet Copley Carmichael (Amelia father) who tells Sookie that Hadley and Remy (Hadley's ex husband) had a child. Eric brings Sookie to met her Great-Grandfather Niall Brigant (I love the interactions between Sookie and Niall)(the explanation of Sookie's grandmother and Fintan) Niall helps Sookie understand why her own mother was so devoted to her father but not truly the children (the fairy blood in him). Quinn is missing this whole time since the devastation at the Summit. We met Octavia Fant, Amelia mentor. Many people (were-woman) are being killed. Amelia and Pam get a little close. Sookie is being attacked along with the woman being killed, she contact Patrick Furman because Alcide and Sookie feel that he is behind everything. Patrick denies everything, even stating that his wife is missing. Sookie purposes a sit down to get the bottom of things. Sam goes with her for protection and support. During the meeting a woman speaks stating that she is there to take over everything. All hell breaks loose but not before we find out that the woman has a close connection with Cal. MANY Weres are killed and Alcide take over the pack master position. Frannie shows up at Sookie's home (being sent by Quinn) to warn Sookie that the Las Vegas Vampires are planning to take over Louisiana. The sheriffs are killed except for Eric (thank God). Frannie tell Sookie that her and Quinn's mother is a screw up that got out of a nuthouse and killed someone while going to Vegas. The Vegas Vamps said that everything would be cleared up but Quinn would have more debt to pay off (his choices are bull!) Quinn suggest a merge between Vegas and Louisiana but the high and mighty will not marry Sophie-Anne because she no longer has legs because of the fire. Victor Madden along with many Vamp and Quinn in tiger form goes to Sookie's house with plans on telling Eric that he no longer has a Queen and to pledge his loyalty to the King of Vegas. (Why they didn`t kill Eric was written very well). Bill pledged to Victor that he would die for Sookie and Eric states that if Sookie is hurt forces that Victor couldn't even imagine would be set into motion. Eric and Bill accept the takeover. Bill continues to suck up to Sookie (what else is new!!) Sookie goes to her room once everything clears to find Eric sitting on her bed, he states her scent and sitting on her bed made him remember the time that they spent together.Quinn see Sookie the next morning but that doesn't go as while as he hoped. Sam tells Sookie about his past. Niall comes to visit Sookie in front of Sam. Octavia Fant moves in with Sookie and Amelia. We find out who Tanya really I, and why she is hanging around all the time. Bill comes to Sookie telling her that Selah has moved away. Jason pisses Sookie off like he never has (Serious stuff going on between Jason and Crystal). We actually get to met the King of Vegas Felipe De Castro. We find out the someone from the Queen past did not perish in the hotel fire and he attacked the King, Eric and Sam. Sam saves them (YEAH SOOK). Octavia turns Bob back into a human. Niall visits Sookie again to find out if she has decided what he can do for her. She wants to know where Remy Savoy (Hadley ex) is? He gets the information to Sookie and she goes to visit Remy and Hadley's son Hunter. To top it all off we find out that Hunter is a very special little boy...I really enjoy this book just felt that he had a lot of information in it and it was all developed very quickly in the book. I would have like it a little better to be more spread out so that certain individual section could have been explored in more detail.All in all another lovely one from Harris. Can't wait for the next one...
