Wow… just in… a nice review in Publisher’s Weekly about this new book coming in December, The Ancestors, published by Kensington/Dafina 
Yaaay!
The Ancestors L.A. Banks, Tananarive Due and Brandon Massey. Kensington/Dafina, $14 paper (304p) ISBN 978-0-7582-2382-1
Talented African-American authors Banks (The Shadows), Massey (Don’t Ever Tell) and Due (Blood Colony) explore ancestral roots in intriguing horror novellas. Banks puts a time-travel twist into “Ev’ry Shut Eye Ain’t Sleep,†in which antique dealer Abe Morgan helps a friend, Rashid Jackson, protect Aziza, Rashid’s granddaughter, from “the shades†after Aziza inherits her grandmother’s house. In Massey’s “The Patriarch,†a crime novelist brings his fiancée to Coldwater, Miss., to introduce her to his mom’s kinfolk, but runs afoul of a powerful family secret. Due’s “Ghost Summer,†the best of the trio, also works as a YA novel. Davie Stephens, who’s determined to become a 12-year-old ghost buster, and various family members find themselves haunted by a 1909 cold case in Graceville, Fla. All three contributors successfully combine scary themes with rich historical detail. (Dec.)

I’ve had the hardest time finding a copy of the book locally. I didn’t want to order online and then have to wait for the book to be delivered. Finally, after trying for weeks, I went and ordered through the local Barnes and Noble. I didn’t think it would have been this hard to find a book. Nonetheless, I’m looking forward to reading the book when I finally get my hands on a copy. Congrats and good luck!
I have a copy of The Ancestors and loved Leslies’ story, took me a while to work it out but I got there. Being way over The Pond I seem to have a language problem but after the 2nd or 3rd read I eventually get what’s actually being said rather than just reading the words. All in all I enjoyed this books very much but LA Banks story, for me, was by far the best.
