Publisher's summary

It is the Black Dawn, a time of environmental apocalypse, the earth wracked and dying.

It is the Bright Day, a time long generations hence, when a peace has descended across the world.

In each era, a child shall be chosen. Their task is to find a dark messiah known only as the Crowman. But is he our savior - or the final incarnation of evil?

I loved it, but

Make sure you don’t expect a full climax and big action packed story. It’s a journey, two journeys, really. Well told and beautifully written but it finally hit me about 3/4 through that it was not going to end in a battle. And that’s ok. Reminded me of American Gods in that it’s the journeys that count.

Absolute snooze fest...

I couldn't even finish it. The story absolutely drags on at times, and is full of clunky dialogue, awkward sequences of events, and tons of ethereal dream scenes that don't add much. I wanted to like it since Stephen King said the author was good, but this one is a hard pass.
