Libromancer's Apprentice
Libromancer's Apprentice rated it 9 years ago
I've done my fair share of ripping apart film adaptations over the years, even in cases of films I enjoyed, when the changes pushed on irreconcilable. Most recent examples of this can be seen in my recaps of The Hobbit as I do a chapter by chapter read-through, paired with the movies. Combine that...

This book is about an angel that is stuck in hell and wants to save a human soul so he will be allowed entry into heaven. One of the demonic character was really annoying, since it is a snake so it pronounced everything it said a certain way. This book is like all the other crow book, because the ma...

A very young girl was murdered, not just murdered, but every imaginable crime and a few unimaginable ones were also carried out on her. All of this happens in the first few pages and it is a downward spiral from here. The main character is the police detective given the case to solve and how his sin...

The legend lives on. I remember seeing the movie in theaters. Brandon Lee did an extraordinary job at the role. I have never read any of the other "Crow" graphic novels, maybe I will one day.As long as they are not like this one. I would of gave this a 2.5 review but some of the story line touched m...

I read this book at the beggining of October, completely forgot to review it, and each time I remembered I just didn't have the time to sit down and remember how I felt when I read it.So I will keep this to the point, a much shorter review than I'm used to, but here you go...Joe Salk used to be a ve...
