review:
'Ring Shout' by P. Djeli Clark is an ebook about a group of women standing up against the racist and supernatural powers of the Ku Klux Klan in this alternate history story.
Maryse Boudreaux has seen a few things. So have her friends, a sharpshooter and a Harlem Hellfighter. They take on the evil creatures she calls Ku Kluxes with her magic sword and defies them. With the support of a community, this is a battle that culminates with an attempt to bring more evil forces in to the world with a showing of The Birth of a Nation.
I loved this story of monster hunters and the take on racism as a vehemently monstrous thing (like it unfortunately is in reality). I liked this take on urban fantasy and would love to see more of these characters. This was a fun read.
I received a review copy of this ebook from Macmillan-Tor Forge and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
