Fever Season by Barbara Hambly

4.0

I have mixed feelings about this book. Barbara Hambly is a very talented writer. Her prose is beautiful, the setting is compelling and she really makes you feel the difficulties of living as a free black man at the time. But the story takes absolutely forever to get going here. I managed to finish it but I kind of had to force myself. So much of this story is relentlessly grim, as well. It's a bit of a slog.
