Overview

When the trees start screaming, the crows answer. And this time, they choose a queen. Corvus is many things: ice-cream thief, reluctant diplomat to seagulls, and the only crow in Britain who still believes humans might be worth saving. But when the Ancient Yew summons him to Wiltshire, even he knows something is wrong. The Rootnet the hidden network that binds every tree on Earth-is dying. And if it falls silent, so does the world. Their only hope is Merlina, the proud, sharp-tongued Queen of the Tower Ravens... who can no longer fly. To stop a catastrophic experiment at Porton Down, Merlina must undergo the forbidden ritual known as the Merder a transformation that will fold her wings into flesh and turn her into something the human world will never see coming. Walking on two legs is humiliating enough. Navigating human clothes, human lies, and human scientists may be worse. With a jazz-hating guard dog, a scarecrow maker who used to be a crow, and Corvus himself (armed with snacks and questionable optimism), Merlina steps into a conspiracy rooted deeper than any forest. Because something ancient is waking beneath Anthrax Woods. Something hungry. Something that remembers the last time humans ignored the warnings. Mythic, funny, and unexpectedly moving, The Merder of Crows blends British folklore, eco-mystery, and dark whimsy into a story of transformation, loyalty, and the price of forgetting the natural world.
