Raven's Cry

"Everything has degrees, and deep evils seem lighter if you are broken enough."

Do you like dark fairytale retellings? Calandra—little sister to the future Count of Bone Bay—likes the idea of supporting her people without the pressure of an official title. She prefers quiet and learning over making dreaded small talk with her fellow nobles. When Nicodemus, a magus with immense power, joins the royal court of Invarnis, Calandra's life changes forever. She is entranced when he shows her magic for the first time, but its entry into the royal court has repercussions she never imagined.

In this reimagined Swan Lake, Calandra is haunted by a curse that pursues her through the centuries. She'll have to overcome war, loss, and suffering to save the land of Invarnis. When the dust settles, however, can she rebuild her life and find a new place in this reborn world?

Set in Dana Fraedrich's fantasy steampunk world of Broken Gears, Raven's Cry is great for fans of Suzanne Collins, Sarah J. Maas, and Naomi Novik. In this standalone installment, readers will discover a realm of dark magic and technology as they join Calandra in her battle for freedom, hope, and healing.

"Raven's Cry is a dark yet purely original recounting of Swan Lake. But, the author expertly blends that tale into the imaginative creation of her Broken Gears world and to good effect. If this is our introduction to Dana Fraedrich's books, we readers will certainly want to discover and also eagerly read her other stories." ~Reader's Favorite
