I read Mirce Eliade's book about shamanism but I wanted to look at other sources and have a better understandment of what currently shamanism is.
This book is perfect if you are beginner and want to have an overview.

It was a wonderful experience.

This is a highly enjoyable and fun to read fantasy book.
I loved the plot and the way it mixes modern times technology with a fantasy world.
There could be some more details and world building but it can be developed in the next instalments as I assume this is a series.
I look forward to reading the further instalment in this series.

I loved the first instalment in this series and I loved this one.
It was like meeting again some old friend. I loved the plot that kept me guessing till the end and it's full of turns and twists.
I loved the new characters and reading how the relationships were developing.
A very enjoyable and fun read.
Highly recommended!

I love Francis Duncan's mysteries and I love Mordecai Tremaine, a wonderful character.
This is a bit different from the other books I read as it's more a police procedural than Mordecai sleuthing.
It was a wonderful and enjoyable read, a bit slow at the beginning but once you're hooked it was impossible to put it down.
I loved how the psychology of the different suspects was analysed and how the plot kept you guessing till the unexpected discovery of the culprit.
Highly recommended!

I really enjoyed this book. It's funny and gives you food for thought at the same time.
It was really good to read about the road to self-discovery of a senior woman.
The book is well written and the characters are really well designed.
Strongly recommended.

I love this series and always thought they were really good mysteries but this Iis the best in the series.
The plot keep you guessing till the end and I stayed awake late in the night hooked by the developments, twists, and turns.
The characters are well developed and it's interesting how thing evolves from one book to the next.
The paranormal element that was quite heavy in the previous book is present but in a light way.
The cast of characters is always likeable and the cats are adorable.
I look forward to reading the next instalment.
Highly recommended!

This book was a lot of fun to read. It was great to meet again Holly, Nelda and the cast of characters of the previous instalment.
It was a lot of fun to read, with interesting developments and new characters.
There are two notes:
1/ sometimes I had the impression it was the second part of the previous book
2/ it took quite a long time before it evolved from a fun to read comedy of manners into a mystery
The mystery part was interesting and full of twists and turns.
I'm curious to read what will be in the next instalment.

There's so many things I want to try and it was a lovely trip into the Souther way of partying and cooking.
Highly recommended!
