A Crow's Calling (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798318813474)

Kuno, a nervous young crow, faces an overwhelming challenge when tasked with retrieving a powerful talisman from the sinister owl couple, Dasha and Drago. This talisman, stolen long ago from the crow clan, grants the owls unnatural longevity and fuels their malevolent plans to eradicate the crows. As Kuno embarks on this daunting mission, he grapples with self-doubt but finds strength in unexpected friendships, particularly with Katrina, a courageous refugee crow who has escaped her own perilous situation. Throughout his journey, Kuno is guided by the wise and mysterious King Crow, who inspires him to embrace his potential. Alongside Moki, a spirited meadowlark, Kuno navigates treacherous terrains and confronts formidable adversaries, including Old Gus, a ruthless hawk leading the raptors in their quest for dominance. The stakes rise further when Kubla, a zealous warrior crow, emerges, intent on claiming the talisman for himself. As Kuno encounters betrayal and danger, he must confront his fears and rise to the occasion. Each trial transforms him from a hesitant participant into a determined hero, embodying resilience and hope. In A Crow's Calling, Kuno's journey illustrates that even the most anxious individuals can discover their inner strength when the survival of their loved ones hangs in the balance, ultimately revealing the power of courage, friendship, and love in the face of adversity.
