Eric, Sookie, and some oddly assorted allies decide that gunnin' for someone is a two-way street after Victor is revealed as the force behind the new vamp club ruining Eric's business, and the roadhouse ruining Sam's beloved Merlotte's, in an unsubtle effort to make Eric come for Victor so Eric can be killed without explanation or expiation.Yeah, good luck with that. Felipe chose to keep Eric, Sookie's vampire-rite husband, as Sheriff, the only individual so favored, and thus Victor's gunning (literally and figuratively) for him. And, insult to injury, Felipe is separating the Louisiana/Arkansas merger that was effected before the mass deaths two (possibly three) books ago when Sophie-Anne married whatever the King of Arkansas's name was before everyone at the wedding was slaughtered. Victor's got his knickers in a knot because he felt he should be King of Louisiana, not just Regent. I suspect the little elf who does my mental filing has grown very lazy in these internetty years.Our various dramatis personae are all a-whirl in this outing.how odd, right?.over the Nevada vampire king, Felipe, choosing the reprehensible (even for a vampire) Victor as his Regent. It certainly feels that way when one is internetless for long stretches! Facts I gave not a second's thought to, because I could pop online and look 'em up, are all wetware storage reliant.

Too many givens aren't what my memory offers.well, who knows, I might just be sufferin' from worsening Half-heimer's.

I'm sure I missed something along the way. Rating: 3.75* of five The Book Report: Sookie Stackhouse's latest print outing.
