One of America's most romantic and mysterious cities - its steamy languid climate; its cultural gumbo of Catholicism and voodoo, French past and Creole present; and its celebrated corruption, cuisine and cemeteries - all combine to make the Crescent City a magical place. A magic enhanced by Anne Rice's novels of the sensually supernatural. Newly updated, this guide offers a tour of hotels, graveyards, streets and places mentioned in these novels, complete with maps, photos, some usual and some unusual tourist information like the fictional settings of Anne's Vampires and Witches.

My copy of this book is now well worn - a sign of an excellent book. I used this book to form the basis of my visit to New Orleans, I read it before I went and used it as a guide while there. It shouldn't be of interest soley to Rice fans though as it doesn't concentrate soley on locations and characters from her books. It looks at the history of the city and has resources and other places of interest in the back.
Suffice to say that due to the descriptive style and content I felt very familiar with the sights, sounds and smells once I landed in The Big Easy!! I still look at it now and my trip was over 2 years ago.

Last year, for Christmas 97 we had to go to New Orleans to see my father's family, I was having a a horrible time because of the weather. (We went the year before for Mardi Gras, the weather makes my hair go afro-y; it doesn't help to use your normal hair-care products.) We went to the French Quarter the day we were leaving and pow there was this cool book. I had to get it, I've read all of the Mayfair Witches books. I recommend it to anyone that's ever wondered about where their favorite characters lived.

I saw this book in the bookstore and it's really interesteng. So mesmerizing that I couldn't put it down (thus being late to work). I realized just how much I had missed on my first visit to New Orleans. I plan on going again in Spring and I'm taking this book as a guide of sorts. Full of many great odditites of New Orleans.
