I started this book on New Years Eve and finished it off on New Years day. MGM is compilation of 11 sort stories, centered around Mardi Gras in New Orleans. It was a quick, fun read, great for getting in the Mardi Gras mood.

The stories all focused on the dark, macabre side of Mardi Gras: vampires, ghosts; the things that happen in dark alleys while the party goes on, the real “farewell to the flesh”.

Each story was really engrossing and I found myself wishing most of them were full length books…
