The Black Heart Loa release madness continues! LOL. I always enjoy hanging out at Dark Faerie Tales, so when I was invited back, I jumped at the chance to get another giveaway going.
(It also gave me a break from trying to unravel the myriad evil plots that my cats have hatched against my computer in their never-ending quest to murder the thing that takes so much of Mom’s attention.)
The giveaway is open to international and runs through July 13th. Prizes include two signed sets of Hoodoo books: Black Dust Mambo and Black Heart Loa, and two signed copies of any of my titles–winner’s choice.
So swing by, say hey, and enter to win!
Black Heart Loa has hit the shelves (both real and virtual) today! Help me celebrate the release by joining me on Bitten by Books, where I’ll be answering questions all through the day. I’m also offering two Amazon.com e-gift cards as prizes! I’ll see you there! (And bring confetti and champagne with you!)

Join me on June 28th at Bitten by Books for the release party for Black Heart Loa. I’m giving away e-gift certificates to Amazon.com – one for $50 and one for $25. RSVP before the event, and you’ll receive 25 extra entries into the contest. I hope to see y’all tomorrow on Bitten by Books to chat and celebrate my latest release!

Black Heart Loa received a 4.5 star review on Night Owl Reviews and was named a Top Pick! My cats yawned while I did a happy dance and clinked imaginary champagne glasses. (Note to self: buy more champagne glasses. Hurling them at encroaching zombies during New Year’s soiree was inspired, but . . .)
Here’s a taste of the review: “Black Heart Loa by Adrian Phoenix continues the gripping saga of life in the bayou and environs of New Orleans started in Black Dust Mambo. Kallie Riviere is still coming to terms with the shocking revelations about herself and the sacrifices so many have made on her behalf. A frantic search for her cousin Jackson Bonaparte reveals that there are significant problems with the use of the tools that the practitioners are familiar with and disastrous complications proliferate.” READ THE REST
