The Crow: Clash by Night (The Crow, No 3)
by Chet Williamson
from Harper Paperbacks
The Eternal One
At our human limits, when we've gone as far as flesh and imagination can take us, we meet the Eternal One.
The Crow
Immemorially old, and inconsolable, he is there only for those who seek both revenge and love, and are willing to go all the way - and beyond.
Clash By Night
A crazed militia has planted a bomb in a day-care center, and a dedicated teacher discovers it just in time to get herself and the children to safety.
Almost. For we are in the dark universe of the crow, where the innocent must die so that justice can triumph.
Where a woman devoted to peace must don camouflage as she prowls with her black-winged familiar through the tangled underworld of hate on a search-and-destroy mission that leads her from gun shows to the rubble of the disaster.
A rubble that is stirring with new and hideous life...
The Story of Noichi the Blind
from Cemetery Dance Pubns
Chet Williamson's The Story of Noichi the Blind blends Japanese classicism with the tropes of contemporary horror to create the most literate yet stomach-churning tale this writer has ever told.
Purported to be a possibly lost Lafcadio Hearn manuscript, this Japanese "folk tale" (complete with introduction and scholarly afterword) tells the story of a simple woodcutter whose confrontation with a mountain demon plunges his life into a nightmare of violence, self-delusion, and extreme sexual darkness.
Tinged by the blackest of humor, The Story of Noichi the Blind is a work that Williamson fears could get him arrested in several countries and carefully observed in his own.
