Another Broken Wizard by Colin Dodds
3.0
This has absolutely nothing to do with wizards (only a small mention about one near the end) but all about a man named Jim. It was basically a diary of Jim’s life when he is in Worcester the place he grew up. He is there as his dad is having open heart surgery and he is there to take care of him. During that time he gets in with his old friend Joe, who is much into drinks and drugs and things take a turn for the worse.
I didn’t think much to this book if I am honest, it didn’t capture me. There was no exciting plot, drugs and drink seemed to be all Jim and Joe did together and Jim lending money to Joe. Worcester didn’t sound like a nice place at all. Jim actually annoyed me actually. Yes he may have been having a tough time losing his job, going to look after his dad, but he was in a relationship and just sleeps with a random girl he meets in the hospital waiting room.
The narrator did capture me though; his voice reminded me of the intro to the 80’s TV show of The A-Team.
