It has taken twenty-five years of hard work for Charlaine Harris to become an overnight success. She has written all sorts from poetry and plays to novels in many genres – mysteries, crime, romance – but it is her supernatural stories that have turned her into a true global superstar. The hugely popular Sookie Stackhouse series about a “telepathic Louisiana barmaid and friend to vampires, werewolves, and various other odd creatures” has been published in Japan, Greece, Germany, Thailand, Spain, France, and Russia as well as here and, of course in the US and this list of territories continues to expand.
In 2008, Alan Ball (creator of Six Feet Under) produced True Blood a TV series for HBO based on Charlaine’s Southern Vampire Mysteries (starring Oscar winner Anna Paquin as the heroine) and the huge success of the series has catapulted the author to a whole new level. More recently, Charlaine’s Aurora Teagarden and Midnight Texas series have also been developed for television.
Charlaine is also the author of eight Aurora Teagarden Mysteries, five Lily Bard Mysteries, four Harper Connelly thrillers; and two stand-alone thrillers, SWEET AND DEADLY and A SECRET RAGE – all of which have been reissued in 2013 by Gollancz, in the UK.

“Harris knows how to keep her plots bubbling along nicely, but also brings plenty of colour to her evocation of the Deep South, and keeps the supernatural side of the story on a believable level. The sexy, enjoyable relationships never overwhelm the story, and the whole mixture is helped by a main character who’s humane, flawed, and genuine fun to be around. Harris has also learned the most important trick of this style of mystery series. If you’re in the mood for some genuinely entertaining page-turners, with a dash of blood-red horror … give Sookie Stackhouse a try. She’s slowly gathering a cult following, so be prepared to hear more of her…” — SFX
