The world felt fresh and unique, with an interesting blend of real-world cultures inspiring it. The world and the magic system of this novel really stood out to me. But what happens when Tavin begins to want something to call his own? Hawk warrior Tavin has always put Jas’s life before his, magically assuming the prince’s appearance and shadowing his every step.
But he offers a wager that she can’t refuse: protect him from a ruthless queen, and he’ll protect the Crows when he reigns. When Crown Prince Jasimir turns out to have faked his death, Fie’s ready to cut her losses-and perhaps his throat. Her Crow caste of undertakers and mercy-killers takes more abuse than coin, but when they’re called to collect royal dead, she’s hoping they’ll find the payout of a lifetime. Fie abides by one rule: look after your own. One way or another, we always feed the crows. The novel is the first entry in The Merciful Crow duology. It’s the author’s debut novel and was published by Henry Holt & Co in July 2019.
