Chuck Wendig: Unclean Spirits (2018, Abaddon) 3 stars

Characters in Search of a Plot

2 stars

While I love the fact that gods and monsters from a whole lot of pantheons make appearances, Unclean Spirits wasn’t my cup of tea. It’s not often that I can say this about a book, but I liked the characters better than the plot. I kept wishing that these characters had a better story to star in, because I’ll remember them far longer than I’ll recall the actual plot of the novel. So while I got some entertainment value out of the side characters, I found myself looking forward to finding what I should read next. Ended up skipping the novella included in the edition I read, mostly because I just didn’t care to read more about that particular world.
