Acerca de esta escucha

Miriam Black knows when you will die.

Still in her early twenties, she’s foreseen hundreds of car crashes, heart attacks, strokes, suicides, and slow deaths by cancer. But when Miriam hitches a ride with truck driver Louis Darling and shakes his hand, she sees that in thirty days he will be gruesomely murdered while he calls her name.

Miriam has given up trying to save people; that only makes their deaths happen. No matter what she does, she can’t save Louis. But if she wants to stay alive, she’ll have to try.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Blackbirds is a story of loss and what it takes to make things right. It’s a story about fate and how sometimes, if we wrestle with it hard enough, maybe we can change it. It’s the kind of book that doesn’t let go even after you’ve put it down.” ( Stephen Blackmoore)
Engaging Storyline • Unique Premise • Excellent Narration • Complex Protagonist • Twisty Plot • Witty Writing

Any additional comments?

Rough, raw, gritty language and violence. Very funny in places. Excellent writing and plot. Highly recommended. I'll be listening to other books on the series soon. Narrator did a nice job. I wish she was better at "voices," but I'll gladly listen to her again.

if rough language offends, avoid; else, enjoy!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I have been following Chuck Wendig for a few years now, and I have come to enjoy his writing style immensely. The story of Blackbirds is dark, following the story of a troubled young woman who can see when you die, and can't do anything to change it. The writing is fluid, the characters are interesting, and the plot is riveting.

My only critique is that the main character sounds much like Chuck, or at least sounds like the voice he presents during interviews and on his blog. This is not a bad thing, per say; but, it distracted me from remembering that the character was in fact a troubled woman, and not the middle aged self proclaimed pen monkey that entertains almost daily.

A Story of Fate and the F-word

The reader was such a refreshing delight. I can't say how much I enjoyed her. A very diverse talent with a great bag of tricks. Her voice was the perfect voice for the atmosphere of the story, and played well with the dark humor.
Chuck Wending was unknown to me, but what a wonderful talent. I'm looking forward to the next books so much. The story is very dark, but so funny the women in this story are so great, well written characters. It was a great time it everything from tragedy, to laugh out loud humor, some truly scary stuff, one time I had to grimace along with characters. This is a good audio choice, with a great catcher and a ton to keep you interested.

It's a cooling breeze on sweltering night in June????

The book had an interesting premise, and some good characters, and it was very well performed. That said, the main character was very angsty, and the book get very dark at times.

Dark but interesting

Chuck Wendig's stories are not restful, and the excellent narration on this audio book means you can't miss a single word. Best of all, there's three books in this series...

Always a hell of a ride.

In the first few chapters I was turned off by the steady stream of foul language and the inner rage of the protagonist BUT I am so glad I hung in there and heard the rest of this awesome story. It couldn't have been written any other way. It's rare that I actually give in to outright laughter, fist pumps, and tears while listening because I do most of my listening in public places like the gym, but I couldn't help myself. I will be reading/listening to the rest of this series for sure! Well done, Wendig! And Emily Beresford did a superb narration.

stay with it

Loved it! Perfect Chuck Wendig. Narrator was 4 of 5, some really good, some just pretty good. Still, overall, 4.33+. Engaging premise, well constructed, good characters, the right people got (proportionally) what they had coming, and the end kept me guessing.

Fun!

I liked the story but the cursing was excessive, but creative, even for the type of character being presented. The book comments "...she curses like a sailor. " I never met a sailor or soldier that cursed that much.

This is one of those weird cases where I'm not sure if I really ENJOYED this book, but I couldn't put it down. Miriam Black has a really crude attitude and vocabulary that didn't really resonate with me. I wouldn't consider her badass so much as a bad-mouther -- she has enough self defense to keep herself safe(ish) in her transient lifestyle, but she talks rougher and cruder than her skills can really support. But regardless of my relative apathy towards her and most of the characters, the book moved quickly and was action packed, simply pulling me along in it's wake. This book culminated with a feeling of setting a stage for much more expansion in the next installment, similar to the end of a TV pilot, and I would be interested to see if the series improves for me.

Engrossing, if not particularly enjoyable
