Wake of Vultures

I loved listening to The Shadow radio show on NPR, and even the movie. I was incredibly excited to have another retelling of the story in modern-ish times. This book is incredibly fast-paced, and with chapters lasting at most 6 pages, a very quick read.

Unfortunately, the writing, lack of character development, and major changes to character abilities without explanation made me just want to finish the book and put it aside.

If you're looking for a quick Summer beach read with little plot and a less deep thinking, this is definitely the book for you.

I wish I could have enjoyed it more. But it just wasn't for me, and I;m not even recommending my kids read it.
