Reviews
“Solid plotting and a well-described, consistent setting make this a strong and intriguing addition to the genre.” —Publishers Weekly on River Road
“[Johnson] does a brilliant job of bringing her fantasy version of New Orleans to life. An enchanting examination of magic and the people who wield it, River Road is a book to be savored. This second novel in the Sentinels of New Orleans series is a page-turner all by itself, but don’t cheat yourself by missing out on Royal Street, its predecessor.” —RT Book Reviews, on River Road
“A vivid debut. . . . Sympathetic, entertaining DJ is the perfect narrator.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review, on River Road
“A resourceful heroine who relies on her magical ingenuity. . . . The author captures Katrina’s devastation and the long recovery of a city’s resilient people.” —Library Journal, starred review on Royal Street
“Suggest this fast, fun, and engaging fantasy-thriller to fans of Charlaine Harris and Cat Adams.” —Booklist on Royal Street
“Deft humor, creative plot twists, sure-footed use of language and quirky characters. . . . Likely to remind readers of Charlaine Harris’s fun True Blood.” —New Orleans Times-Picayune on Royal Street
“Unplug the phone. Turn off the TV. You won’t want to be interrupted. I read it in one sitting. A thoroughly enjoyable world and a likeable heroine make for a fun read.” —Cat Adams, author of Siren Song, on Royal Street
