Associated with life and death, disease and luck, corvids
have long captured mankind’s attention, showing up in mythology as the
companions or manifestations of deities, and starring in stories from Aesop to
Poe and beyond.

In Corvidae birds are born of blood and pain, trickster
ravens live up to their names, magpies take human form, blue jays battle evil
forces, and choughs become prisoners of war. These stories will take you to the
Great War, research facilities, frozen mountaintops, steam-powered worlds,
remote forest homes, and deep into fairy tales. One thing is for certain, after
reading this anthology, you’ll never look the same way at the corvid outside
your window.
