A review by lsneal
Fever Season by Barbara Hambly

4.0

Hambly's writing is as evocative as ever, as she continues this series set in 1830s New Orleans. The divisions between Creole and American, free colored and enslaved black are as stark as ever, but the portrayal of how members of the different groups interact with each other are nuanced and fascinating. It's a grim book in many ways, but I can't help but want to read more about Benjamin January and his friends (and enemies).
