The Stormcrow Cycle is a trilogy comprising of The Exile, The Lion, and Abomination. Updates whenever I have time. Cross-posted on Wattpad and Scribble Hub. The CBMokedi cover will return! Note: This is a high-fantasy set in a low-magic world. The first book is largely character-driven and we really only hit the real plot in Book II, so if you're not fond of long epic yarns you ought to skip this one. I also don't include trigger warnings, but mind the "traumatizing content" tag--all societies minus one practice slavery and the world is indeed, rather grim!...
