Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The first 90% of this book was great, then the author apparently got tired of writing and left both his readers and his characters suspended in time and space. Prior to this review I've had nothing bad to say about this series, and most of this book was excellent. It has New Orleans in all of its Mardi Gras glory, a great story, great and unusual characters. There were a hundred possible ending that would made this literally a masterpiece, but no the author feels so insecure about his book he has to leave his ending for a future book. Sort of like he ran out of inspiration and only had one good story left in him, so he spread it over two books which is what no talent wannabes often do. I never purchase the second half of a book unless it is clear going in that the book is in two parts. The real shame here is outside of this half book, Tony Dunbar was becoming one of my favorite authors, but he lost me forever!
