Publisher's summary
The classic tale of star-crossed lovers, Michael Singleton and Alena Andrick.
Book one in the award-winning contemporary fantasy trilogy about a tribe of shapeshifters in Northern Maine, USA.
Ten years after departing this world, Michael Singleton returns to the valley nestled along the Blackwater River. Michael suffers from a rare disease, the curse of his tribe. Because of this, Michael's soul will be damned to wander the Shadowlands, the domain of the Witch Goddess, for eternity. To escape this fate, Michael must unlock the spell that opens the portal to Corvus' kingdom, the Otherworld. It is a secret known to only one man, the powerful Guardian of the Dead.
Alena is the only child of the Guardian of the Dead. Her safe, predictable life is turned upside down when she meets Michael at the Solstice celebration. When Michael is accused of murdering the Captain of the Guard, Alena must choose between obeying her instincts or the laws of her people.

Story
P.I. Wyatt Thomas is more than a French Quarter sleuth. Much more. Whenever a new client needs someone to investigate ghosts, possession, or the paranormal and supernatural backside of New Orleans, Wyatt is the person they call. Someone is killing New Orleans street people, and it is affecting the tourist trade in the venerable old city trying to recover from Hurricane Katrina. More than murder, voodoo is involved, the killer possibly an actual Vodoun deity.

Story
I’m Jinx. As a private investigator, being a walking, talking lie detector is a useful skill—but let’s face it, it’s not normal. You’d think it would make my job way too easy, but even with my weird skills, I still haven’t been able to track down my parent’s killers. When I’m hired to find a missing university student, I hope to find her propped up at a bar—yet my gut tells me there’s more to this case than a party girl gone wild.

Story
I always wanted supernatural powers. What I didn't anticipate is that uncovering them would mean dealing with a whole host of "otherworldly" problems. For starters, I'm pretty sure the house I'm living in is haunted. Either that or I'm losing my mind. Secondly, I'm going to a college for supernaturals with zero ideas on what powers I possess. But someone higher up must know something, or I wouldn't be here. Right? Everywhere I go, new secrets are emerging. Like, the fact that I went missing when I was a kid and I don't remember a thing. And this ancestral home...it has secret rooms.

Is a witch throwing curses your way? Something scary scratching at your window in the night? Then, I've got just the charm for you. Mostly, though, I find things. Lost treasures, missing loved ones...if you need something found, I'm your guy. So, when a grieving father hired me to track down a family heirloom stolen by a sticky-fingered hobgoblin, I was happy to help.

Cadence "Cady" Bloomquist knows two things for sure: First, shelving books at her shop, Nevermore Bookstore, totally counts as cardio. Second, staying late every Thursday night to take a certain mysterious customer's order is not the same as waiting by the phone for some man. Until the calls with the man who identifies himself only as "Fox" last for hours, and become the highlight of her week. Which leaves her to wonder, if his velvet voice can kindle her fire over the phone, what sort of alchemy might it inspire if they met in person?

My father called them messengers. He once told me they walked among us and that somewhere in this dark and godless city, there shined a faint sliver of hope. I had only to look for the signs. Well, I’ve spent my whole life investigating the inexplicable and all I've found are the unsettling vestiges of iniquity—the evidence of another world shrouded by the obscure. Purgatory to some, where depravity hides in shadows, and girls like me are little more than delicious bites of temptation. Others call it Nightshade.

You define life or it defines you. In Shawn Speakman’s case, it was both. Lacking health insurance and diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 2011, Shawn quickly accrued a massive medical debt that he did not have the ability to pay. That’s when New York Times best-selling author Terry Brooks offered to donate a short story that Shawn could sell to help alleviate those bills—and suggested he ask the same of his other writer friends. Unfettered is the result: An anthology built in order to relieve that debt, featuring short stories by some of the best fantasy writers in the genre.

Chosen from birth to usher in a new era, Poppy’s life has never been her own. The life of the Maiden is solitary. Never to be touched. Never to be looked upon. Never to be spoken to. Never to experience pleasure. Waiting for the day of her Ascension, she would rather be with the guards, fighting back the evil that took her family, than preparing to be found worthy by the gods. But the choice has never been hers.

Definitely a different look on werewolf. The jumping back and fort from past to present was confusing at times.

Incredibly unique blend of fantasy and mystery....
Blackbird is a difficult book to classify because it blends many genres together. It is a combination of mystery, fantasy/paranormal and romance. I found the concept of this separate world within our world of shape shifters and magical beings an intriguing one. However, I also found the story somewhat difficult to follow. I'm not sure if this is because the story is told from so many characters' viewpoints, or if the story had too many details without enough foundation for the world building. I enjoyed the story, and the author kept me guessing throughout the book. I find myself having finished the book and not really sure what happened. The ending is not a positive one, and it seems to leave many unanswered questions, so I am hopeful that the second book will make everything from this book more clear and resolved.
Winona Owen has a very pleasant voice, but she mispronounces a lot of words. I think this might have contributed to my overall confusion with the story. Owen doesn't differentiate at all between characters, so listeners need to pay close attention at the beginning of each chapter when she reads the name of the person speaking in that chapter.
I received a copy of this audiobook at my request in exchange for this honest review.

Great 👍
I really wish I hadn't waited so long to write this review so I could remember more details. I got a pit pup and she had really put a kabash on my reading/listening/reviewing. But I couldn't leave this book out. It was great. Fascinating characters, never knowing what is coming next, and I've never read a book quite like this one. Awesome. I definitely hope/plan to read the next one. So excited!

Pretty Good
I got this story via audiobook boom and this is my voluntary review. First, the narrator was pretty good with the characters and each was distinguishable. The story overall was good. There were some parts that made me wonder how did I get to here from where I was. Michael's fate surprised me. The ending was not a cliff hanger but you know from the title there will be other books. This was a stand-alone complete story that leads the listener to wait for the next shoe to drop. This was also a perfect example of racism. Prejudice plus power. Overall a good story just a little disjointed. I am sure the next one will be even better.

Alena's father is the Guardian of the Dead.No one but he is allowed to read or know certain things.Alena falls for the wrong man and she encounters scrolls which get her into trouble.I am looking forward to the next book. Winona Owen was a fine narrator.

Great Read
Blackbird (The Children of Corvus #1) was a good read by L.E Harrison. This book is about a tribe of shape shifters in the forest of northern Maine, called Blackwater Hills. Alena is the only child of the Guardian of the Dead. She meets Michael cat the solstice celebration and it turns her life upside down. Michael is accused of murdering the Captain of the Guard, and Alena must choose between obeying her instincts and the laws of her people. I really enjoyed this book and can't wait to read more by the author.

Hard to follow at first
Great book, it was a little difficult for me to follow at first as I was listening with my dogs running around. I restarted the book and then was sucked in to it. Can’t wait to start the next one!

Young adult fiction
I am a fan of sci fi/fantasy and young adult fiction in general. This book was interesting but a little hard to follow at times. This was partly my fault as I did not have dedicated time to listen to the book consistently.
The story about a girl falling for someone her father does not support because he is an outsider is interesting but the lingo of a new world is a bit hard to get into.
The narrator did a fantastic job, however, and made the book easy to listen to. I will listen again when I have more time.
Winona Owen has a great voice, fitted to narrating books, and I will listen to more that she has narrated.
