In 1915, The Birth of a Nation cast a spell across America, swelling the Klan's ranks and drinking deep from the darkest thoughts of white folk. All across the nation they ride, spreading fear and violence among the vulnerable. They plan to bring Hell to Earth. But even Ku Kluxes can die.
Standing in their way is Maryse Boudreaux and her fellow resistance fighters, a foul-mouthed sharpshooter and a Harlem Hellfighter. Armed with blade, bullet, and bomb, they hunt their hunters and send the Klan's demons straight to Hell. But something awful's brewing in Macon, and the war on Hell is about to heat up.
Can Maryse stop the Klan before it ends the world?
This is going to be a DNF for me at 28% :( To be fair, I wasn't particularly enthused to be reading it, but it was a book club pick so I thought I'd give it a try. Thing is, the reason I wasn't interested was that it was horror (which I don't like) -- and yet, horror has nothing to do with why I am quitting it. I just am bored AF. I feel no connection to the characters, the setting, nothing. This is just not my type of book in general, I think. Lots of the "N" word, not used pejoratively but still, I don't like that. And the general tone just isn't grabbing my interest. I see that lots of people have enjoyed it and I will say, the narration is GREAT if you've considered listening to it. I just wasn't the right audience for the book.
