Jeg er en av de som elsker Sookies univers, det på papiret, og ikke vil at det skal ta slutt. Med Midnight seiern tar forfatteren oss tilbake ditt. Inbyggerne i Midnight er hovedpersonene i boken. Vi møter perifere personer fra Sookie serien, og vi møter de samme, pluss noen nye, overnaturlige vesner. Boken forteller om innbyggerne i byen ved å veksle mellom hvem som følges.
