Mama Root Phil Penne

Mama Root: Tales From the Old Woman of Loop Road centers around the life of a strange and exceptionally old woman living off a very real venue called Loop Road deep in the Big Cypress Swamp of South Florida. In the course of this beldam's 146 years she has run afoul of shapeshifters, hired killers and demonic wraiths inhabiting her dreams. She has told of murderous spinning wheels and horses returned from the dead. She has known material gain and devastating loss, joy and despair, ruby love and the flint of hate. So find a comfortable chair, get yourself a glass of sweet tea with a sprig of mint, and immerse yourself in the life of this amazing woman. Oh, and if it's dark... ...you may want to keep a light on.
