The plot was pretty good. I do have one nitpick, Dominica would not have practiced Voudon [Voodoo], because she is not of Haitian descent. She would have practiced Santeria. I have only a slight knowledge of Voudon, and I don't know that much about Santeria, so I'm going to google-fu it to see if th...

So this is the 2nd time around this book, 1st review tho. I really enjoyed. Actually i loved it. I love the almost flawless smooth writing style. I love the plot, the hints of romance. I love the gory stuff, the heartache and in the end the justice.

Why do the authors always introduce the worst and biggest of big bads in their first book(s)? It makes that much more difficult to gather and keep up the momentum later on especially when writing a long series.

I liked this one a lot more than the first one. I think it was that I found it easier to to follow because I knew a lot of the characters from the first one.
