The Best Book on New Orleans and Laveau

This book is absolutely the most interesting and fascinating story I have ever read concerning the subjects of New Orleans History and Marie Laveau. Tallant is the genius of taking the facts that have been gathered on both subjects and combining them into a novel that you cannot and will not put down. It is a page turner from start to finish. I am currently reading the book for the third time, and I am not a big reader. It is THAT GOOD. If you love the call and the mystery of this river city, you will be spell bound! AAA+++

excellent (partly fictional) account of Marie Laveau!

Tallant's story about Marie Laveau and her daughter is built upon the research he discloses in his Voodoo in New Orleans book. He transforms these facts and legends about the two women into an excellent, spellbinding novel.
