Ebonsheare, a medieval  rustic land, with knights, barbarians, and clans, is on the brink of war.  One of the main characters is hiding out with a demented hermit, and another craves adventure. With a call to arms nailed to the local inn door, and storm clouds gathering, adventure was sure to greet them. 

 This epic fantasy is an intriguing and rollicking adventure of well-rounded characters and fast moving plot.  

From the very first sentence " Without warning the storm blew in from the West" - I was caught up in the epic narrative that Mr Culverhouse created. A world of intrigue and action, beautifully described three dimensional characters, atmosphere and rationale. 

Wolf and the Crow is very well written, it strikes a good balance between the narrative, action and description. Mr Culverhouse draws the reader in and challenges them to think about the intrigue occurring in the plot, just as the characters are challenged.  The atmosphere of the novel is so well written the reader can almost feel they are in the story, and taste the mud, the blood, and the treachory.

I read this book in one sitting, because it is THAT good. If you want a book you can read and re-read, a fantasy novel with depth and one you can really get into. This novel is for you

This is book one in the Ebonsheare chronicles, I eagerly await book two.

I give this book five out of five bats.

The book can be purchased from a variety of stores including:
