This one was very cool! I like a good "deal with the devil" tale and this was a good one with an unusual setting. The Devil Went Down to Georgia is one of my old favorites, and I did also think of the red shoes. I love Cajun accents, though I've never actually met anyone who speaks with one (I live up in the frozen norther, ya, you betcha). Lots of great description, great reading, great plot, great characters.
I did have a little trouble trying to keep track of the names, probably because I mostly remember names by knowing how they're spelled, and French pronunciation is so strange to me that hearing a name gives me very little idea how it's spelled. And in a few places it seemed like some details were based on southern myths that I'm completely unfamiliar with which made me feel a little left behind, if only for a moment. But those are just minor things that didn't distract much from the story.
Good stuff!
On a tangent, I've now listened to all of Podcastle's backlogs, but I'm behind on the commenting.
