The upcoming novel Thunderbird, from Chuck Wendig, is a relaunch of his beloved Miriam Black series, focusing on a whole new story arc. While technically it’s the fourth book in the saga, it serves as the start of a new trilogy so we thought it would be a great entry point for horror readers who might not yet have been exposed to the series.
Per publisher Simon & Schuster/Saga, not only is the book “gritty and fun”–Miriam is a character who digs her claws into you and won’t let go–it’s a special blend of genre that author Wendig affectionately calls “horror crime.” It has a thriller feel mixed with a supernatural element… what more could you want?
Thunderbird arrives February 28th, and you can pre-order it now from Amazon, where you’ll also find an excerpt from the book.
Synopsis:
In the fourth installment of the Miriam Black series, Miriam heads to the Southwest. She is in search of another psychic who can help her with her curse but instead finds a group of domestic terrorists and the worst vision of death she’s had yet. Miriam is becoming addicted to seeing her death visions, but she is also trying out something new: hope.
