I read “The Bottle, The Bloodline, The War” as a whole. It’s raw and gripping. McClendon was intimate in his manner of interconnecting memory and magic as though he were telling about himself. You simply cannot help but get sucked into the journey of David. It is a truly Compelling narrative.

This book is deep. Similarly, it struck me in areas that I was not anticipating. Legacy, family, and forgotten magic intertwine in such a haunting manner. Characters created by Frederick were actual and imperfect. I felt myself on their side as though they were part of me.

I couldn’t resist stopping reading. The text is dramatic and emotional, and I felt like reading more in every chapter. McClendon is able to draw a clear picture of Brooklyn and beyond with those universal struggles. It is a fantasy and a mirror of the actual struggles that we all have.

To be honest, I did not pay much attention to fantasy before this. The confusion of myth and personal histories is brilliant. His constructed world is living. McClendon understands how to get you to care. It is heartfelt and gritty, and I have already suggested it to all of my friends!
