In The Judgment, the final installment of Clem Martini's trilogy of "Feather and Bone: the Crow Chronicles," Kyp Kym, Kaf, Kata and the others continue their trials through the world of crows. The group struggles with questions of community and responsibility. Traveling to avoid being destroyed by a massive group of crows called The Collection, Kyp's crows hone both their fighting and negotiating skills while learning the importance of fear putting "extra wind under your wings." The world is turned upside down as the crows confront human and other enemies. The search for a haven involves many miles and much loss of crow life. Readers who have not read the other segments will still be enthralled with the story.

Opinion: 

Clem Martini's clear language invites readers into the world of the crows. To see our human world from the crows' perspective is a treat. Cars become "moving boxes." A rabbit probably ate shooting stars and pooped lightning to become so fast. Now there's a vivid image. The challenges of the escape invite and destroy the fragile community of the flock. This story will appeal to those who like animal stories, fantasy, and quest tales. Its message of courage and cooperation offers life lessons for readers. Recommended for middle schoolers.
