Sookie Stackhouse is back in Bon Temps, but the danger is far from gone. She finds Eric, remember him-big,blonde vampire?-  running down the road, shirtless, in the middle of the night. She picks him up and she finds that he has no memory. She shelters him from the people who did this to him- a new coven of witches that just moved in. In the fourth book of the Sookie Stackhouse series the vamps, weres, and shifters are back, as well as some new witches.
Really suspenseful and FUN! ( )

I'm starting to love this series more and more. It's truly addictive! ( )

Possibly my favorite book in the series so far. Eric is so entertaining, and much, much nicer with amnesia than he is normally. Despite the dark and definitely adult nature of this series, I keep thinking of it as light-hearted whenever he's on the scene. Perfect guilty pleasure reading for the paranormal fan. ( )

Dead to the World had all of the key elements (less Bill, more Alcide, more Bubba and a lot more Eric) that made me love Club Dead, but it just wasn't as stunning. I've come to realize I am very much a part of "Team Eric." His personality is such a force of its own, I can imagine how anyone could not love reading the character. Dead to the World has a massive amount of Eric, but we really don't get to experience his personality. While key to the storyline, it made me feel his presence was wasted and was kind of a letdown. If you can get past the lack of true Eric-ness, Dead to the World is another fantastic Southern Vampire novel. ( )

This was my favorite one yet.I liked Amnesiac Eric's personality.Still sometimes wonder about the authors writing there's times where I feel like I missed something,but these are a quick fun read. ( )

Epigraph
Dedication
"Though they'll probably never read it, this book is dedicated to all the coaches—baseball, football, volleyball, soccer—who've worked through so many years, often for no monetary reward, to coax athletic performances out of my children and to instill in them an understanding of The Game. God bless you all, and thanks from one of the moms who crowds the stands through rain, cold, heat, and mosquitoes. However, this mom always wonders who else might be watching the night games."

Book description

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0441012183, Mass Market Paperback)

From Emma Bull's War for the Oaks to Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series, from The X-Files to Buffy the Vampire Slayer, creators are mixing old European myths and legends with modern American pop culture. Incorporating influences ranging from blaxploitation movies and erotic novels to tabloid staples like UFOs and Elvis, authors and directors are creating a new mythology for the strip-mall, tract-house, cell-phone America of the new millennium.

One of the best-known and best writers of the new American mythology is Charlaine Harris. Dead to the World is the fourth novel in her Anthony Award-winning Southern Vampire series. It continues the story of psychic waitress Sookie Stackhouse, who has fallen out with her undead lover, Bill. Bill has no sooner departed for Peru, than Sookie finds the head vampire, Eric, running naked and terrified through the rural night. She helps Eric, and discovers his memory has been destroyed by a coven of unscrupulous, astonishingly powerful witches, newly arrived in her small Louisiana town, and offering a huge reward for Eric. Sookie tries to hide Eric, but her brother sees him--and immediately disappears. And Sookie finds herself caught in a war among witches, vampires, and werewolves. --Cynthia Ward
