Voodoo meets cyberpunk in this post-apocalyptic urban fantasy....
A bit of a similar feel to the stories she did for Bordertown/Borderlands... but these characters are playing for higher stakes.... our protagonist is Sparrow, an androgynous character with a love for old movies and a talent for electronic tinkering; her friends include a young tarot card reader and a nightclub DJ/VJ... but when old legends of mysterious individuals who have the ability to switch bodies at will start surfacing, the average citizens of this decaying version of Minneapolis (?) are out of their depth....

good stuff!

It's one of those books that is engaging yet weird, so weird that it hooks you in. Nothing is really the way it seems, yet it is.

Set in a post-apocalyptic world that is believably harsh, our protagonist gets involved in things without really understanding them, and why the man is out to get him

It's a good story. My only "wish" is that more of the characters were developed and that it was a longer book.
