3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed! 12 July 2004
By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback
At first, I thought 'Great, this seems like it's going to be good,' boy, was I wrong. This book gets three stars because it started okay, but I felt like giving it two. There is absolutely no chemistry between the two main characters, in fact, they barely seem to like each other. The plot is thin, and intensely boring, with few turns or points of interest to keep it crawling along. The world it occurs in had potential, but the author ruined the atmosphere by making it all seem so trivial. To me, this seems like the kind of book someone who hardly ever reads might enjoy - that is, someone who has no experience of something better.
I found myself liking the baddie far more than the two surprisingly dull main characters (considering they are supposed to be creatures of myth, they seem a lot like extras on a sitcom), and hoping he might just obliterate them to put me out of my misery. Unfortunately, I find myself wishing I had bought 'that other book,' instead of adding a valued piece to my library. Take my advice: don't waste your time.

5.0 out of 5 stars They're back and "goblin" the Big Easy! 10 Mar 2004
By Deborah MacGillivray HALL OF FAME VINE™ VOICE
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Melanie Jackson gives us a third Goblin tale of the Lutine Empire, where Goblin escapees from France (figures ;-) that's where the troublemakers came from!) are slowing taking over the US. “Traveler” and “The Outsiders” took the romance/paranormal genre by storm, because it’s being so fresh and original a concept. Blending mythology with her "Wildside" alternative world, these tales are funny, breathtaking adventures, that are wickedly sexy. In “Traveler”, the Goblins were in rule of Detroit, but then, no one really missed Detroit, so the Lutine threat was not taken seriously. But then they moved in on Las Vegas in “The Outsider”, and people started to get grumpy. Only now, they have taken hold of the Big Easy. Oh, my! What will happen to Mardi; are the Crewes loaded with Goblins in drag? And what about a “Poor Boy”...are the ingredients still oysters? Will Preservation Hall still play Dixieland? Are Al Hirt and Pete Fountain really goblins?

Well, Melanie is not content with have King Quede a Goblin king rule New Orleans...this Goblin is also a vampire! Where is Peter Cushing when you need him! Worse, Half-Sylph Lyris has been given evidence to prove Quede and the Goblins were behind the Kennedy Assassination and the Lyndon Johnson was replaced with a goblin replicant, which means the Goblins had been in the White House for ages! Lyris cannot let this go, and must travel to New Orleans to beard the orchid-crazy Vampire-Goblin on his home turf.

Romeo Hart has been sent to New Orleans to suss out how bad the Goblin infestation is, and works as a stripper at a French Quarter bar, to keep an eye on the situation. Lyris team up with Romeo to lure Quede out into open and it's a sultry goblin chase all the way!

Romeo and Lyris are another pair of Melanie's vivid creations, and will keep you turning page after page, unable to put the book down.

Look for the fourth in the Goblin series come September called "STILL LIFE". Keep them coming!! They are a breath of fresh air and a loving tribute to ancient lore!

5.0 out of 5 stars Golbins of the World Unite!! 2 Mar 2004
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Enough of this applauding brilliant Melanie Jackson! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE save a tree and a Goblin and so not support this mad woman. She is making it impossible for a self-respecting Goblin to live anywhere. First she chased my cousins out of Detroit with her "Traveler" expose. Not content to cause all the ruckus and displace Goblins by the thousands, she then turned her busybody ways into poking her nose where it does not belong - again - with "The Outsiders", shining her spotlight on Las vegas - where any self-respecting Goblin should be able to prowl without raising an eyebrow!!

Now she is at it again!!! With "The Courier" she is now trying to make everyone see me and my poor cousins are hiding in the Big Easy!! Worse, she is trying to blame the Kennedy Assassination on us poor Goblins.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!! Is it not slander enough poor kiddies are told nightly, the "goblins'll get you if you don't watch out"??? Is it not enough thousands of Goblins have been displaced by this busybody writer that cannot leave well enough alone???

Do not support this crazy women. We goblins are nice people, too!! We did not kill Kennedy - DO NOT LISTEN TO MS. Jackson and her conspiracy theories!!

GOBLINS of the WORLD UNITE and stop this slander and harassment.

Ms. Jackson, you should be ashamed of yourself for harassing harmless goblins. We did not kill Kennedy. STop this Madness!!!
