Mojo is a Must Read!

Mojo; Conjure Stories is a collection of nineteen original stories that explore the perils of magic. Nalo Hopkinson gathered these stories, which combine urban literary awareness with rich lore of African-Caribbean cultures. These stories explore the myths of zombies, voodoo curses, ancient rites of the Ibo, slave ships, Jim Crow’s 20s, and many other entrancing tales.

When I first began to read these stories I could not put the book down. All of the short stories are very easy reads that keep you at the edge of your seat with every written word. Two of my favorite stories would have to be “Heartspace” written by Steven Barnes and “The Prowl” which was written by Gregory Frost. These stories have to do with the dark arts but tend to keep you entranced, they have a sense of reality embedded in a their stories. They make the reader want to believe what is being read and this is why this collections of stories is a must read. I highly recommend Mojo; Conjure Stories.
