Book Reviews of Dead as a Doornail (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 5)
Book Review: dead girl Stackhouse [no spoilers]
Summary: 3 Stars
Less than one month passes and the "Southern Vampire Mysteries" fifth installment "Dead as a Doornail" provides insight into the Were community including internal politics and brutal traditions when someone begins hunting down the two-natured. Though glad to learn more about another supernatural culture, I was disappointed by the faulty editing and lackluster plot.
Sookie's witnesses the lingering affects of her brother's horrific imprisonment by a werepanther. The only exciting highlight is a new character named Charles Twining, a pirate vampire; otherwise the uneventful story and plot twists didn't engage me as the prior novels. Sam does demonstrate variety in his abilities too.
The series appears to be young adult with tendencies toward action and suspense, not horror per se. I recommend this collection to any fan of the vampire genre.
Thank you.
Summary of Dead as a Doornail (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 5)
When Sookie's brother Jason's eyes start to change, she knows he's about to turn into a were-panther for the first time. But her concern becomes cold fear when a sniper sets his deadly sights on the local changeling population-and Jason's new panther brethren suspect he may be the shooter. Now, Sookie has until the next full moon to find out who's behind the attacks, unless the killer decides to find her first.Dark Fantasy Books
