Helpful Score: 4

Although this is the author's first novel, I really enjoyed the writing style. I would not be surprised to see this book eventually made into a movie, as this series could easily attract a "Cult" following. There is heavy emphasis on music, scent and amusing fetish textures, along with an intertwining of basic commonality ("scientific") beliefs and "soul" beliefs. There is a wonderful glossary of "Cajun" terms in the back - wish I'd known about that, in advance.
