of
Andalusia Dogs (Haunted Hearts : Season of the Witch):
"A truly unusual story with beautifully complicated characters. I really had no idea which way the story would go, as there were some very original plot twists. The artistic world was interesting, including some clearly pretentious performers. 1980 Sp"

| Wonderful fusion of MM Romance and Irish folklore that goes beyond the cliches of either and delivers a story with richly charismatic characters and a genuinely puzzling mystery. | |

“Even Blood Shades are unsure just where these come from. In less enlightened times, they were thought to be the voices of the devil, in his many forms. Or at least a conspiracy of powerful demons. A cacophany of screams, moans, and laughs, the laughter of a Blood Shade, unfiltered by mortal form or the manners of human society. A concerto of horrors for my target’s eyes and ears alone.”
