COULD YOU FIND A MUSEUM FOR A MONSTER?OR A JAZZ BAR FOR A JABBERWOCK?
Zoe Norris writes travel guides for the undead. And she's good at it too -- her new-found ability to talk to cities seems to help. After the success of The Sbambling Guide to New York City, Zoe and her team are sent to New Orleans to write the sequel.
Work isn't all that brings Zoe to the Big Easy. The only person who can save her boyfriend from zombism is rumored to live in the city's swamps, but Zoe's out of her element in the wilderness. With her supernatural colleagues waiting to see her fail, and rumors of a new threat hunting city talkers, can Zoe stay alive long enough to finish her next book?

Review:
"This book, like its predecessor, feels inhabited and alive... Even more entertaining than the Shambling Guide."―Locus on Ghost Train to New Orleans
"Lafferty's writing has an easy style that draws the reader in... She manages to shape the well-worked clay in entertaining new ways."―Publishers Weekly on The Ghost Train to New Orleans
Mur Lafferty's debut novel is a must-read book for those who like their urban fantasy fast, furious, and funny. Terrific stuff!―Kat Richardson on The Shambling Guide to New York City
This is a great start to what promises to be one of the gems of the comic urban fantasy crown. The Shambling Guide sets the wonderful world of the supernatural--and the slightly more esoteric world of travel guide publishing--on its ear, and the result is nothing short of delightful.―New York Times bestselling author Seanan McGuire
An engagingly funny, and fun, romp through NYC. You'll love Zoe... to bits―New York Times bestselling Tobias S. Buckell on The Shambling Guide to New York City
"Shows exactly why so many writers have been buzzing about Mur Lafferty for so many years: an unbeatable mixture of humor, heart, imagination, and characterization. I want to live in Mur's New York."―Cory Doctorow on The Shambling Guide to New York City
"Without Mur Lafferty, the SF genre would be a much duller place. Mur is constantly inventive, always great fun and deserves every success."―Paul Cornell on The Shambling Guide to New York City
Wit, style and plenty of sardonic dialogue, like Douglas Adams writing an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.―Financial Times
If Buffy grew up, got therapy and found a real job, it would look like this.―Scott Sigler
Well-written and immersive...a travel series you'll definitely want to stick with.―SFX
