5.0 out of 5 stars His best yet, 14 Jan 2003
Speaks the Nightbird is the finest novel this author has yet produced, and considering his other works, such as Boy's Life, Gone South, and the epic Swan Song, that's saying something. The novel concerns the coming age of a Magistrate's squire in a struggling colonial town, and a witchcraft trial which will forever change his life. The book richly evocates it's setting, and it's obvious McCammon has done a great deal of research into his subject matter. Although not an out and out horror novel, this has it's fair share of grisly moments, but bottom line it's an intensely involving and absorbing read with (unusually in this reader's experience) a richly rewarding climax. Not only that: but the book, despite being a fantastic stand alone work, manages to offer the tantalising prospect of a sequel. Robert McCammon is simply one of the finest authors working today. Read this, you will love it.

5.0 out of 5 stars speaks the nightbird, 28 Dec 2002
By N. Andrews (Welling Kent) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
After nearly a ten year absence Robert McCammon has returned to our bookstores with an epic tale of dark secrets and page turning suspense. I read this book in three sittings such is this master of his genres skill at putting the reader slap bang in the middle of a story line that grips and drags you sweating to a page turning end. Robert McCammon is back and for his fans it was a long wait but with Speaks the Nightbird he yet again proves that all good things come to those that wait.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why Can't All Books..............., 6 Aug 2006
By M. Marshall - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Speaks the Nightbird - Book I: Judgement of the Witch (Mass Market Paperback)
Well I thought Robert McCammon had been abducted by aliens but he's back, and how. Between the two volumes it runs to about 900 pages but it's such a rivetting read that it seemed much shorter. There's nothing other-worldly about the plot, it's a mystery that'll draw you in from page 1 - great characters, great story, just enough historical detail and a surprising, but welcome, epilogue. Get it today.
