In Charlaine Harris’s “The Southern Vampire Mysteries” series, Sookie Stackhouse had a long relationship with Eric Northman. Harris concluded the book series in May 2013 with “Dead Ever After,” and followed up in October with “After Dead: What Came Next in the World of Sookie Stackhouse.” HBO will be airing the series finale of “True Blood” on Sunday, Aug.24, leading us to look back at Harris and see what kind of ending the author envisioned for Sookie, Bill, Eric and the rest of the Bon Temps gang. Now in its seventh and final season, the late June premiere brought in 5.8 million people. Released at the height of vampire hype, Season 1 of “True Blood” averaged 6.8 million viewers per episode. Named after the tasty fictional beverage that allowed vampires to “come out of the coffin,” the TV show became a ratings goldmine for HBO. With the series finale of “True Blood” approaching on HBO, we’re taking a look back at what started the entire craze – Charlaine Harris’ “Sookie Stackhouse Novels.” The now 62-year-old southern mystery author from Mississippi wrote 14 books in “The Southern Vampire Mysteries” series – or as readers better know it, “The Sookie Stackhouse Novels.” In print since 2001, the books were brought to life on screen by HBO in 2008. "True Blood," which is based off of Harris's books, will air its series finale on Sunday, Aug. "Dead Ever After," the final book in the "Sookie Stackhouse Novels" by Charlaine Harris, was released in May 2013.
