Agent Joshua Bilmes of the JABberwocky Literary Agency has a bunch of “Sookie Stackhouse” or “Southern Vampire” news for and from author Charlaine Harris.
First and foremost, HBO has renewed True Blood, the television series based on the novels, for a third season.
Second, editor Ginjer Buchanan at Ace Books has bought rights to publish the 11th, 12th, and 13th Sookie Stackhouse novels.
Third, “a record nine Sookie Stackhouse novels by Charlaine Harris were on the printed New York Times bestseller list for Sunday 9 August 2009. Dead and Gone appeared on the hardcover fiction list, and eight books appeared in the top 20 mass market spots.”

i hope sookie stays with eric.he’s much more powerful(personality wise) than any of the other characters,he can be strong for her in a way that bill never could.eric will let her be strong in her own way,bill and sam always treated her like a child.eric wants her to be who she is,not what he wants her to be(other than his wife),he will allow her to grow in her own way.
I am almost done with book 10 and can’t wait for book 11 to come out. I have been reading some of the comments in here about Sookie and Bill Vs Sookie and Eric. I would like to see her hook up with Sam, they have been really good friends and he’s a warm blooded Sup. Bill is a jerk for what he did to her and that’s just not forgivable. Eric is getting too soft and mushy and needs to be a bad ass again.
I really like True Blood can’t wait for season 3 to come out to find out whats sookie is going to do next or where she is going. I think she is cute with both Bill and Eric. Hey 3some.LOL
