Hands down my favorite of my favorites! In my opinion, this is the best book of the Sookie Stackhouse series. Now, that may be due to my unhealthy obsession with the character of Eric Northman, but I honestly think it is just incredibly entertaining. When Eric loses his memory (due to a spell cast by an evil witch named Hallow,) he ends up staying with Sookie in hiding while the witch is hunted down. During this time, he forgets all about his place in vampire politics and becomes almost human in his emotional state. The ensuing romance between Sookie and Eric is nothing short of electrifying. The action is still in place as the war that ensues when Hallow is found is intense. Oh, and Sookie's brother Jason is missing and again it falls to her to track him down. But this book is so sexy, it tends to overshadow the rest of the plot, not that I minded! Do not miss this one, it portrays my concept of the essence of this series better than any of the other 9 books. A little of everything I love about Charlaine Harris!
