About this item
Suzanne Johnson's "strong and intriguing" (Publishers Weekly) urban fantasy series continues with Belle Chasse. The Sentinels of New Orleans series has earned starred reviews from Library Journal ("a resourceful heroine who relies on her magical ingenuity") and PW ("vivid...a lively tale jam-packed with action, magic, and intriguing plot twists") .With the wizard-elven treaty on the verge of collapse, the preternatural world stands on the brink of war. Unless former wizard sentinel DJ Jaco manages to keep the elven leader, Quince Randolph, focused on peace and not personal matters.With no one on the throne, Faerie is in chaos, with rival princes battling for power. The still-undead pirate, Jean Lafitte, is building his own army of misfits, and DJ -- stripped of her job and hiding in the Beyond to avoid the death sentence handed down by the wizard Council of Elders -- can't get anywhere near her beloved New Orleans or her significant something-or-other, Alex.
About the Author
Suzanne Johnson grew up halfway between the Bear Bryant Museum and Elvis' birthplace, but was also a longtime resident of New Orleans, so she has a highly refined sense of the absurd and an ingrained love of SEC football, cheap Mardi Gras trinkets, and fried gator on a stick. She currently lives in Auburn, Alabama.
PIRATE'S ALLEY is the newest in the Sentinels of New Orleans urban fantasy series, published in April 2015 (following ROYAL STREET in 2012, RIVER ROAD in 2012, and ELYSIAN FIELDS in 2013) . Book five, BELLE CHASSE, is due November 2016. She also is the author of a paranormal short, Christmas in Dogtown. Writing as Susannah Sandlin, she's the author of the best-selling paranormal romance Penton Legacy series, the romantic suspense duology, The Collectors, and the new Wilds of the Bayou series, which began in April 2016 with WILD MAN'S CURSE.
ELYSIAN FIELDS is the 2014 Gayle Wilson Award of Excellence award winner for fantasy, futuristic, and paranormal fiction.
