A Touch of Dead - Sookie Stackhouse Short Stories
A Touch of Dead is a compilation of the short stories written by Charlaine Harris that feature Sookie Stackhouse. The great thing about this book is that it will include all of the short stories in one place. This will be great for people who have already collected the books as well as those who haven’t.
Here’s a list of the current Sookie Stackhouse short stories and the books that they appear in:
| Short Story Title | Book Title | Gift Wrap | Wolfsbane and Mistletoe | Dracula Night | Many Bloody Returns | Fairy Dust | Powers of Detection | One Word Answer | Bite | Lucky | Unusual Suspects |
Here’s the entire listing (including A Touch of Dead) at Amazon: Sookie Stackhouse Short Story Books. A Touch of Dead will be released October 6, 2009.
Stay tuned: I plan to review each of the current books that contain Sookie Stackhouse short stories.
Is there a book or short story between “Dead as a Doornail” and “Definitely Dead”? It seems like there’s time missing around Hadley’s death.
Martha:
There’s a book of short stories called “Bite” which includes a Sookie Stackhouse story called “One Word Answer.” That short story provides more information about Hadley’s death.
Here’s the link for more information on Bite. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Yes there is a short story and it is “One Word Answer” in the Bite book.
I watched True Blood series 1 and 2 on TV, want to know if I buy the book “A touch of dead” if that will include all the stories or do I have to buy all the books in between?
Love the series!!
Estelle:
A Touch of Dead contains all of the Sookie Stackhouse short stories only. You’ll need to read the Sookie Stackhouse books 1-9 in order to get the real scoop on Sookie, Eric, Bill, Jason, and Sam!
i have just read all the books and they are great but i was wondering if there is going to be any more as the end of the last book, just leaves you hanging for another?? what happens to sookie. please write another to finish the story about sookie, does she marry eric?? or not.
Dead in the family is coming out May 2010.
I love TrueBlood series… and now i am going to order box set of 8 sookie stackhouse copied heheh cant wait to read the books…
Hi
I just want to know what is the difference between “a Touch of dead” the Sookie Stackhouse Collection, and “a Touch of dead” the complete stories. There is a big difference in the price. Can you tell me which one to buy. I am finished with all 9 the books. Cant wait for “dead in the family”!!!
Thanks
Do we know why the short story “Two Blondes” is left out of the “Touch of Dead” book?
I read Dead Until Dark and am wondering who Bubba is? They described him as if we should know who he is when Bill asks him to watch over Sookie while he is out of town. Sookie is told not to use his real name, so she knows him. Also, Arlene thinks she recognizes him too. Did I totally miss something earlier on in the book?
It is Elvis.
You can kind of guess it when she almost says his name El… And the when they talk about those who dresses up as Elvis in Las Vegas
Hey all,
I am so lost.. I looked on Wikipedia and it says the short stories are in some of the books, I just finished Dead To The World and I didn’t see any short stories in there.. should I buy A Touch Of Dead and read the short stories as it says on Wikipedia? I’ve noticed some people ask why some short stories aren’t in A Touch Of Dead? Where are people finding these stories? I love these books but they are so confusing!!
