THE FAITHLESS HAWK Merciful Crow Series, Book 2

In this addition to the Merciful Crow series, narrator Amy Landon shapes the fantasy world and its characters with self-confidence and imaginative accents. Landon uses Renaissance English for the lowest caste, the Crows, and the King's English for the royal caste, the Phoenix. The Crows are not liked, but they are immune to the Sinner's Plague and must dispose of the dead from the other castes. Fie is chief of a Crows band. Landon creates a strong warrior voice for her, which she uses to great effect as the story unfolds. Fie's quest to save the kingdom from its evil queen and find Tavin, her true love, will have listeners rooting for her success. E.E.S. © AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine [Published: OCTOBER 2020]
