Blackbirds

Blackbirds - Chuck Wendig If Quentin Tarantino decided to make an Urban Fantasy movie, I would expect the result to be a lot like Blackbirds by Chuck Wendig. This book is profane, violent, bloody, and filled with well-drawn but totally messed-up characters. This is a fast, lean and easy read that will hold your attention even if you're sleep deprived. Wending doesn't waste any words. But...if excess profanity or gore turns you off, this may not be your cup of tea.
