description: Frank Lauria's best-selling novels are known for their odd characters and couplings, and Blue Limbo offers some of the oddest when a power hungry bureaucrat teams up with a Haitian voodoo master. The two are turning unsuspecting victims into zombies and slowly taking control of society. Psychic detective Dr. Orient gets involved when he is called in as a consultant for a mysterious submarine accident (a result of the zombification of one of the passengers). Sidetracked by a voodoo temptress, the good doctor is captured. Only when he makes contact with a higher spiritual realm can he transform zombie powers into a force for good. Frank Lauria has cited masters like H.P. Lovecraft and A. Merritt as influences, but Blue Limbo remains uniquely his own in mixing the fantastic with the outrageous.
