The Book of Crows by Sam Meekings

This book is divided into sections with two main plots interspersed with smaller, incidental stories.  This makes the whole thing too disparate to be an enjoyable or satisfying read.  The writing is good but the narrative too disjointed and each plot is too independent to amount to a cohesive whole.  What little plot thread there is (linked to the mysterious book of crows) is unrealistic, vague and spectacularly uninteresting.   It might be more gripping if you are keen on theology (I said might - don't blame me).
