"It was such a thrill to return to Vasyllia in the Curse of the Raven. It's a short read, with a different set of main characters, who I really enjoyed getting to know. This novella has all the wonderful things I loved from The Song of the Sirin, and is a great read! I loved the depth of the characters and ideas. I think it's a testament to the strength of Nicholas Kotar's world-building that this novella seems to be simultaneously both independent of and closely tied to the first novel. Highly recommended!" - Goodreads reader Zoe Zamora
"What a great story! With new characters adding even more layers to the grand city of Vasyllia The Curse of the Raven is as gripping as its prequel, The Song of the Sirin. I especially appreciated the depiction of the artisan's struggle to create beauty over commodity, even when it could cost his life!" -Goodreads reader Daniel Watkins
"This novella is a grand achievement and highly recommended both as a great read and for its literary value." -Goodreads reader David Wood
"The Raven series combines the best of fantasy, epic stories and fairy tales, hero characters, and the battle between good and evil. You will feel the hero journey is your own! Read "Song of the Sirin," then hurry to read this novella. Highly recommended." -Goodreads reader Else
