Review: APRICOT BRANDY by Lynn Cesar
APRICOT BRANDY is an exciting combination of horror and dark urban fantasy that takes readers to the edge of sanity and leaves them there wondering if this time evil will triumph. Karen may be innocent, but she is the catalyst (thanks to her DNA) that sets things in motion–even though she is the polar opposite of her cruel father. She reaches inside herself to find the determination to defy him and his god while the Mayan witch [Quetzal] rallies her ghostly horde and the townsfolk. Readers will find Lynn Cesars work magically entertaining. — Harriet Klausner

I just want to say, that I finally got my copy of this book and LOVED it! So much so, that I’ve read it three times since I recieved it. It’s very well written, Karen really jumps out at you from the page- alive and quite real in her emotions.
Well done!

I’m about a third into reading Lynn Cesar’s new book Apricot Brandy. So far it’s pretty scary in some ways, but I found some passages to actually be quite humorous. Excellent descriptions make me feel like I was watching the events unfold next to me.
By the way, I am more of a scifi fan, but I am really enjoying this rather unique blend of supernatural dark fantasy and horror… now I can’t wait to continue reading to enjoy the real battle between good and evil!
Great job Lynn Cesar!!
