THE CROW
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.
THE CROW: QUOTH THE CROW
by David Bischoff
William Blessing is obsessed with Edgar Allen Poe. Like Poe, he is a
writer of dark fantasy. And like Poe, he has powerful enemies. One of
them pretends to be a friend, even as he plots to murder William and
steal his wife. Blessing's only hope is to learn the truth about his
"friend" before--
But this is the realm of The Crow, where the grave is the doorway to
the truth. William must walk through it to discover Poe's final
secret. Then, and only then, with the help of a dark-winged "Raven,"
can he return to feed on the human carrion who raped his wife and
slaughtered his soul.

THE CROW: THE LAZARUS HEART
by Poppy Z. Brite
Five, four, three, two...Jared Poe counts the days on Louisiana's
Death Row. The controversial S&M photographer has been condemned to
die for killing his lover. He doesn't know who did it. Only that he
didn't.
Can he clear his name and find the real killer in time?
No. For this is no ordinary thriller. We are in the dark realm of The
Crow, and Jared must feel the cold shudder of Death, must hear the
beating of black wings, must prowl the shadowy goth netherworld of New
Orleans to prove he was no killer when he died.
And find out what kind of killer he has become.

THE CROW: CLASH BY NIGHT
by Chet Williamson
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...
