Dead in the Family- Sookie Stackhouse #10 (Charlaine Harris)


Dead in the Family - Sookie Stackhouse #10
Charlaine Harris

Blurb: If you think you relationships are complicated, think again: you haven't seen anything like the ones in Bon Temps, Louisiana. Sookie Stackhouse is dealing with a whole host of family problems, ranging from her own kin (a non-human fairy and a telepathic second cousin) demanding a place in her life, to her lover Eric's vampire sire, an ancient being who arrives with Eric's 'brother' in tow at a most inopportune moment. And Sookie's tracking down a distant relation of her ailing neighbour (and ex), Vampire Bill Compton.

In addition to the multitude of family issues complicating her life, the werewolf pack of Shreveport has asked Sookie for a special favour, and since Sookie is an obliging young woman, she agrees. But this favour for the wolves has dire results for Sookie, who is still recovering from the trauma of her abduction during the Fairy War.

Family Guy: Peter The Great - Cine-Manga #1 (Chris Sheridan and Ricky Blitt)

Family Guy: Peter The Great - Cine-Manga #1
Chris Sheridan and Ricky Blitt

Blurb: Peter Griffin thrives on the virtues of life, liberty and the pursuit of freebies. When he receives a clean bill of health from the hospital, he writes on his chart that he's dead so that he can skip out without paying. Peter might be able to cheat the doctors, but will he be able to cheat death? Also in this volume, Peter has to attend sensitivity training and ends up at a women's retreat. Will this man's man get in touch with his feminine side? It's outrageous values in this slapstick volume of Family Guy, which will have the whole family praying...that they don't turn into the Griffins!
