Well, I started reading this book back in 2003. I found it kind of hard going and a little boring. I put it away and decided I would get back to it after a month maybe....I started reading other books that just kept me reading and reading because they were so good. I did keep going back to The Houngan to give it a chance but found it even more hard going after reading other more exciting books. I kept at it though, going back to it every now and again...hoping for improvement. Eventually on November 26th 2005 (Yes damn it....two years later) I finished the thing. There was one chapter that got really good and I thought "YES! this is why I have kept reading because now it's got me wanting to read on".....but unfortunatley it went down hill again and I was very disappointed. I would have felt really cheated if I had paid for this book but a friend was throwing it out so I got it for free. Actually, at first glance I thought it was called The Houligan. I wonder if that story would have been any better? Any way, I think I will bury my copy in the back yard (Safety reasons). I thought maybe this was a first book by J N Williamson but it's the third!! I found it very weak. If I am to put in a good word for this book I suppose it would be that this book may make you interested in looking into Voodoo....I'm not sure if that's a good thing though on second thoughts.
