AUTHOR'S NOTE:
My book Sarah: The Tears of the Crow was inspired by a part of my life, my earliest childhood to be exact, following the death of my father on December 13, 1985, when I was 7 years old. Later, in 1994, I saw Alex Proyas' movie, The Crow, and it was a real revelation for me: that day, without knowing it, I associated the two and my book was born in a corner of my head. But it is much later, during the first confinement due to the covid that I was going to put on paper this idea which had matured for a long time. And so was born my very first short novel of a dramatic thriller genre mixed with a hint of fantasy, Sarah: The Tears of the Crow.
Originally written as a direct sequel to the movie The Crow, the story had to be adapted so that anyone could read it without even knowing the movie that has become a cult today. The story of "Sarah", just like the movie, has a realistic, dark and violent atmosphere, but where love is carried to its paroxysm.
After the book was released in late 2019, I was able to have the book translated into American English. Since the summer of 2020, the English-speaking public has also been able to discover it thanks to a collaboration with one of the characters in the film. Luckily, the latter having loved my vision of the story, helped me with enthusiasm for the American adaptation... As the months went by, I was surprised to discover that other actors and actresses from the film were supporting my book by sharing it on social networks...
So, fan or not of the movie The Crow, I hope you'll enjoy this book, just as I enjoyed writing it and revealing myself.
Have a good reading,
* Sarah: The Tears of the Crow is a fan-book inspired by The Crow movie and comics franchise, but the original idea of the book is first and foremost a personal story of the author, of his own traumatic experiences from his childhood to today. That's why The Crow helped his a lot. The author behind Sarah: The Tears of the Crow are in no way affiliated with the copyright owners and shareholders of The Crow movies and comic franchise. The author just a fan who wrote this book for the fans and to make other people discover a cinematic masterpiece as well as the comics. This is why some text/quotes may therefore refer to certain scenes in the movie.
