Amazon.co.uk
Clash by Nightis another addition to the growing The Crow series of books written by authors other than the creator himself, James O'Barr. This one was penned by Chet Williamson, who had also done the novelisation of the second Crow film, as well as a short story for the anthology The Crow: Shattered Lives and Broken Dreams.
The plot once again revolves around revenge. The Crow, mystically empowered to bring back the souls of the wronged dead, resurrects Amy Carlisle, killed in the day-care centre she owned, by a bomb intended for a visiting senator. She is brought back to avenge the deaths of 10 children killed in the blast. She must track down those responsible for the killing, an extremists white Christian militia group. There's a final, and inevitable, showdown.
In this book, the Crow takes on racists, anti-Semitics, homophobes, misogynists and extreme politics--all rolled into one group called the Sons of a Free America. All very noble, but a bit hard going for what is essentially a horror/fantasy novel. Amy's disgust in the extremophiles is well portrayed, but it's hammered home over and over and over again. After a while, the constant extremist statements do start to sound the same. Comparing this to the emotions of the love lost and the anger felt by the lead character in Poppy Z. Brite's novel, The Crow: The Lazarus Heart, Clash by night seems somewhat empty and repetitive. --Chris van Sheltenga -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine vergriffene oder nicht verfügbare Ausgabe dieses Titels.
Synopsis
The immortal Crow joins a peace-loving woman on a search-and-destroy mission deep in the woods, to break up a crazed militia that tries to bomb a daycare center.

this was one of the best books i'd ever read i would tell anyone to read it.because it just shows if you love and care for somebody anything can happen for you if you believe.

If you liked the movie or original graphic novel, you are bound to love this book. It deals with the raw emotion of having all you love stripped away, and all that's left is vengence.
Format:Taschenbuch
I feel that this volume in the Summer set of Crow novels was the best. It definantly was the longest of the 3, for the most part due to Chet Williamson taking more time to setup and explore than the other authors did. Once I hit chapter 25 there was no stopping me as I had to finish the novel after reading chapter 25 that evening. There are familiar characters used, like ANOTHER policeman helping out, but despite the lack of originality there I felt the story was fresh and capturing. I am more and more becoming a big fan of Chet Williamson. I highly recommend anyone to pick up the new Crow anthology book "Shattered Lives & Broken Dreams" and read Mr Williamson's short story in it. He has definantly become one of the best at telling Crow related stories.
