review 1: As many of you know I am a huge fan of Mythology, so I couldn't wait to dive into this book. Not only does this book have Greek Mythology but it mixes it with Voodoo and it blew me away. I totally became engrossed in this storyline, so much so I didn't want to take time to eat and prayed my Kindle's battery would hold out so I could finish it. I read this none stop and I still want more.Joan is a typical sixteen year old for the exception that her Grandmere is none other than Marie Laveau. Which I found totally fascinating. I have heard the myth's regarding Marie Laveau but never read a book with her in it and I just couldn't get enough. Even when the author mixed Greek and Voodoo, I thought I might have gotten lost but I didn't. She did a fantastic job weaving the myths t... moreogether.The characters were well written and the story flowed well. There was a lot of twists and turns in this book as well, which is another thing I love when I am reading a book. I can't figure what is going to happen next. I have nothing bad to say about this book, I loved every minute of it just wish it didn't end. I will definitely read more from this author. I hope maybe we might see more of Joan, Dave and the rest of the characters in the future
review 2: This is another one of those “I couldn’t put it down books”. If you have read the Sherrilyn Kenyon’s Dark Hunter series and love the Greek pantheon here is a great new twist, (voodoo style). Personally I love anything located in New Orleans or the Cajon bayou. Add to that the paranormal aspect and I am so there!I really loved Joan and that she was so strong and yeah (KickASS). Being a Thank you, but no thank you I will save myself kind of girl, I could really relate to her. Her relationship and interaction with the great voodoo priestess, her Grand’Mere Marie Laveau is wonderful. I felt like I was there in the room with them. Can you imagine being mentored by the Great Marie Laveau and claiming her as a relative!I got a kick out of the ineptness of the snooty Ana. And, I have a huge old tree out back that I will never look at the same again….read it and you will see why.I would have no problem handing this book to any teenager to read, well done Mary Ann.A big 5 thumbs up to you!I received this book for free from the I.O. Book Tours in exchange for an honest review. less
