Debut author Margaret Owen crafts a powerful saga of vengeance, survival, and sacrifice - perfect for fans of Leigh Bardugo and Kendare Blake - in The Merciful Crow. One way or another, we always feed the crows.
A future chieftain
Fie abides by one rule: Look after your own. Her Crow caste of undertakers and mercy-killers takes more abuse than coin, but when they’re called to collect royal dead, she’s hoping they’ll find the payout of a lifetime.
A fugitive prince
When Crown Prince Jasimir turns out to have faked his death, Fie’s ready to cut her losses - and perhaps his throat. But he offers a wager that she can’t refuse: Protect him from a ruthless queen, and he’ll protect the Crows when he reigns.
A too-cunning bodyguard
Hawk warrior Tavin has always put Jas’ life before his, magically assuming the prince’s appearance and shadowing his every step. But what happens when Tavin begins to want something to call his own?

Pretty Good

Owen does a beautiful job writing and exploring the power dynamics of oppression, and what it looks in function. Normally I shy away from books involving caste systems because they end up feeling trite or preachy, but this book just feels real in the most aching and fire-lighting way.
I love this book, I love Fie,
a good mercy

Unique but a little slow

2) Magic system: persons teeth carry the type of magic ruled by their “tribe”. Great. Plague (seems to be) related to history/ behavior.
3)World/politics. Our protagonist is member of lowest status tribe doing heavy lifting for society.
All things I like: smart, flexible trying to do right protagonist dealing with medical/death/class struggles from the bottom, using interesting magic.
Absolutely recommend. Don’t forget it’s in two books: The Merciful Crow, and The Faithless Hawk
Solid!
