Synopsis

Once upon a time there were three young and beautiful princesses, but the youngest was the most beautiful of them. About half a mile from the palace was a castle, which was almost a ruin but with the garden full of blooming flowers. And in this garden the youngest princess often used to walk. One day she met the crow who was all torn and bleeding. The crow said to the princess that he is not a crow, he is just a bewitched prince and only princess can save him. But the princess would have to say goodbye to her own people and become the crow's companion in this ruined castle. Also, he said to the princess: "You will live in a room with a golden bed, but whatever you'll see or hear at night you must not scream. It will hurt me!" Will the princess overcome all difficulties on her way?

Goodreads review by Jeffrey on April 01, 2025

I read the original book when it came out over 20 years ago and wanted to read this updated version for some time now. The Crow is a great movie and I've always been an admirer of Brandon Lee. This book is a great insight into both, with tons of detail about the movie, Brandon, and of course the tra......more
