Gather the Fortunes: A Crescent City Novel: 2 - Tapa blanda

"Camp's prose is suspenseful and rich with feeling, highlighting an incredible heroine. VERDICT: Full of magic and numerous mythologies but still tied to the lush New Orleans setting, this Crescent City is one readers will not want to leave." - Library Journal, STARRED review

"Though it can be read as a standalone, the second Crescent City book (after The City of Lost Fortunes, 2018) once again displays Camp's ability to weave different mythological beliefs in fascinating ways. Readers will relate to...this fast-paced urban fantasy." - Booklist, STARRED review

"In this second installment of his Crescent City urban fantasy series, Camp raises the stakes and broadens the scope of his alternate world...the richness and inventiveness of Camp's vision and the vivacity, warmth, and compassion of his leading woman keep you alert to whatever's happening next. As with the real New Orleans, once you leave this creepier but just as colorful variant, you'll be eager to go back." - Kirkus Reviews

"Honestly, I wasn t sure how author Bryan Camp was going to follow The City of Lost Fortunes - it was one of my favorite books of 2018. But I am glad to report that he manages quite well, thank you very much... Under his care, the swirling milieu of the Crescent City's colors and cultures - both sacred and profane - come to shambling and glorious life...a masterful work by a brilliant new author. As long as the quality of the writing stays this good, I hope there are many more Crescent City novels to come."

"What a joy it is to return to Bryan Camp's weird, dark, vivid, gorgeous magical New Orleans. Highly recommended!" - Sam J. Miller, award-winning author of Blackfish City

"The magic and mythological heft of Bryan Camp s debut doesn't lose any momentum in Gather the Fortunes. He captures the essence and resilience of a still healing New Orleans by digging into the parts of a city too often ignored by the well-to-do and powerful. If The City of Lost Fortunes was a love letter to New Orleans then its next installment is an Earl King blue's song."
