The Judgment (Feather and Bone: The Crow Chronicles) by Clem Martini

Feather and Bone - The Crow Chronicles #3

by Clem Martini

In the third and final novel in Clem Martini's trilogy, Feather and The Crow Chronicles, Kyp and the remains of the flock emerge tattered but alive from their fiery ordeal in the human colony. Pursued by the vengeful Kuper and his fanatical Collection, they flee south, outnumbered and exhausted. Flying through a strange land, where food is scarce and unknown enemies lurk, Kyp and the flock search for an elusive haven. This is a time of terrors and dark omens, when crows hunt down fellow crows. The life or death of the deeply divided flock depends on Kyp's decisions. Does he have the wisdom to decide well and grow from popular hero to mature Chooser? The world of crows is turned upside down in the epic battle that follows his Choice.

اینکه قصۀ چندتا کلاغ این قدر جگرسوز باشد عجیب است. حالا شخصیت‌ها را بهتر می‌شناسیم و حتی برایشان دل می‌سوزانیم و شاید برای همین من این قدر درگیر قصه شدم. بماند که کلاغ‌ها را بسیار دوست دارم. این جلد بسیار تلخ است. یاران قدیمی دشمن همدیگر شدند. درپای شومی همیشه دسته را دنبال می‌کند. قوانین و سنت‌ها کمکی نمی‌کنند و جهان در حال تغییر است. آدم‌ها هم مدام زندگی را برای کلاغ‌ها سخت‌ و سخت‌تر می‌کنند.
قصه تلاش اضافی برای پند و اندرز ندارد. همه قصۀ پرکشش دارد و هم اتفاقات هیجان‌انگیز و هم لحظه‌هایی که فکر کنیم که «چه پیش خواهد آمد!». بله، جاهایی از قصه شاید فکر کنیم که چقدر شبیه جهان ما هستند اما نویسنده بسیار دقیق و خوب تلاش کرده که در لفافه این‌ها را بگوید و واقعاً با یک دسته کلاغ طرف هستیم که مشکلات کلاغی خودشان را دارند. شخصیت‌ها و کنش و ماجراهایشان با هم بسیار مهم‌تر از خود قصه شاید باشد و برای همین تاثیرگذار است و داستان را دنبال می‌کنی و نگران تک‌تک شخصیت‌ها هستی.

The ending to a series is always the best part of the series and book. Because it ties it all together. You can tell what the characters have been through, you know what they thought through out the series and the ending just ties all of that together. It's a good ending, and it's necessary but there's also that feeling where you wish it didn't have to end. That's exactly what I felt when I finished this series, it was well written and so creative that it made it even harder to forget. I'll probably end up rereading this whole series because it was that good.

I was rather sad when this story came to an end. The ending was great and satisfying, don't get me wrong, but I love the series so much that it was rather saddening to know that this was...'the end.' In the third and final fascinating book continuing on from the 'Plague,' I can tell you I devoured every word on every page. It was thrilling...it was exciting...it was amazing! Great work, Clem; a satisfying conclusion to the series.
