    Great list, Jenny! Wow. Thanks for putting it together.

    Personally, I’ll be dancing to The Devil Went Down to Georgia. It’s the music of my people. What a fun event!

      LOL…the music of “your people” – that is soooo funny. I guess mine are more the “Running with the Devil” sort.

      Thanks for the morning laugh!

    Hi, Jenny! Great list, and thanks for the shout-out! Since I already started a series last week of religious detectives for Masters of Mystery Monday (starting with Father Dowling), it seems only fitting that I continue it tomorrow, in honor of Devil Colony: Sister Fidelma.

    Gotta keep you little devils in check, lol. I’ll be linking back to all of you, so the mystery fans can get in on the James Rollins book launch party, too!

    I’ll be singing along with The Devil Went Down to Georgia, too. The rest of my songs aren’t so much about the devil as in and around him. If you know what I mean. Some favs are Living Dead Girl by Rob Zombie and Don’t Fear the Reaper by The Blue Oyster Cult.
