Shadows can cloak the mysteries of the past, the deeds that should be forgotten, mistakes that should be ignored. But some shadows can't be held in the darkness for long, for some have a story to tell. Gabriel Moore is no ordinary child. He's not really living... but he's not really dead, either. In 1860, his father, Mason Moore, a plantation owner and abolitionist, is murdered by secessionists. As he and his mother attempt to flee, Gabriel is killed, but as he gasps his last breaths, a voodoo bokor casts a spell on him. He cannot save Gabriel from death entirely, but puts Gabe's spirit in limbo, where he must wait, until someone can summon him. In 2005, Gabriel re-emerges, but he's no longer a mere boy... he's the voodoo child. And he's got some unfinished business to tend to.... Collects issues 1 thru 6 of Weston & Nicolas Cage's Voodoo Child. LIMITED TO 2000 COPIES WORLDWIDE!

Nicolas Cage proves he can write, too

There is so much I want to say about Voodoo Child, but very little that I can without invoking spoilers. Voodoo Child features an adroitly written story, tight, stylized artwork, and a Creole panache which would send even the most eloquent linguist reaching for their dictionary. Here we have complex characters, logical motivations, clever twists, and a story which leaves you thinking. The titular character, his slave background, and a desolated post-Katrina New Orleans all provide a contemplative platform from which the story launches its ideas about humanity, evil, justice, as well as the human machinery involved - from the victims to the carpetbaggers.

Voodoo Child isn't a terribly long read, but it is an entertaining one. Nicolas Cage fans will appreciate knowing that he influenced the subject matter to reflect the ideas and events that are important to him - and if you're not already a fan, this novel just might make you one.

I DON'T OWN THIS BOOK, BUT I AM IN LOVE WITH SOME NICKY CAGE. HE'S THE GREATEST ACTOR OF OUR GENERATION AND I'M SURE ITS GOING TO BE APPARENT IN HIS WRITING STYLE. ALSO HE WROTE IS WITH HIS SON, SO IT MUST MEAN SOMETHING TO HIM, like maybe his kid is the Voodoo child, we may never truly know.
