Finally a good(ish) one! I love that the author chose such an overlooked historical topic. Haiti in WW1 is a part of the story I've never been told about before. The 'scientific' zombi stuff was delightfully believable (at least for an artist) and I enjoyed all the spies and murder plots.
Every character is right on the mark and the local ones are well fleshed-out. I will say that there were a few too many of them though. I kept getting the voodoo guys and the germans mixed up.
Also, a violence and gore warning. This book is very gory (and just plain gross) and since I don't really go for that sort of thing I had some trouble getting through parts of it.
It's still probably one of the best in the series so far. (But, as I've said, there isn't much competition.)
