Book Synopsis:
New Orleans in the mid-nineteenth century: a potent mix of whites, Creoles, free blacks, and African slaves, a city pulsing with crowds, commerce, and an undercurrent of secret power. The source of this power is the voodoo religion, and its queen is Marie Laveau, the notorious voodooienne, worshipped and feared by blacks and whites alike.

Like many books that I have read, I enjoyed this one so much that I decieded to go out and buy another copy to pass along to some of my friends. I just hope they enjoy this book as much as I did.
