Review: This book is a runaway winner!
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 10 21, 2013
Where in the world has this author been hanging out all this time! He's got the location (beautiful Bahamas) the characters (likeable with real problems) and the dialogue (all too natural) down pat. I'm only 40% in and having a high time of it! Book has already made mention of the supernatural (ghost of dead fiance) vodou (Haitan spiritual tradition) and jumbee (zombies) yet to come, I can hardly wait! Hoping the other reviewer is correct and that the ending is "delicious". I will post an update, but I definitely have high expectations at this point and book may very well make my favorites list if it holds up! ***UPDATE*** Definitely not my usual kind of read, but was good to the last horrifying drop!For more good works with a Halloween theme please see my other reviews including a brief description along with appropriate age group for "The "Ghosties" by Gerald Hawksley children, "A Ghost Went Trick or Treating" by Gene Wilikers children "Mr. Spider (Spooky Spook)" by Hollyn Overton for children, "Don't Lend A Monster Your Favorite Toy" by Elwyn Tate for children, "My Mommy is a Zombie" by Nicholas Benedict, children, "The Teeth that Looked for a New Mouth" by Jill Jones children "Things In The Basement: A History of Halloween Horrors" by John Retzer, Youth on up "Terra Vonnel and the Skulls of Aries" by D.
