Anyone who has a burning desire to learn about the Mummer myths should read The Mummers' Curse . The author, Gillian Roberts has created a credible and likable heroine, and a well developed, logical story line. Outside of Philadelphians entrenched in the Mummer tradition, most other readers will find the book flat, tedious, and uninspiring.
