I love Rickey and G-man! When I reserved D*U*C*K I didn’t realize it was about the great chefs of New Orleans, I just knew it was the first book Poppy Z Brite had written post Katrina. What a pleasant surprise. This one was shorter, not as fleshed out and full as the others (The Value of X, Soul Kitchen, Liquor, Prime), but very good and lots of fun. I am looking forward to Dead Shrimp Blues.
