Crows, Courage, and the Forest

Ray Nayler’s new novel, “The Palaces of the Crow,” drops hot off the press and already has Seattle buzzing—because this time, it’s crows who save the day. Set in war-torn Lithuania between Nazis and Soviets, four young survivors rely on their wits and a flock of extraordinary birds with their own secrets, loyalty, and even a sense of justice. Inspired by real-life resistance fighters and a Seattle girl who received gifts from crows, Nayler crafts a tale of mutual aid across species, where crows reward kindness and punish cruelty, and where a Jewish partisan’s courage becomes the heart of the story. It’s a gripping, soulful reminder that even in darkness, connection and cooperation can be your greatest allies. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
