Please let me know in the comments if you like this short reading from WILLA OF DARK HOLLOW and would like to see more. I created this particular video mostly so that you could hear the language of the ravens, which I find very cool. They're super smart birds. INTRO TO THIS SCENE: Willa is a Faeran woodwitch who has many powers related to the forest in which she lives. She also speaks the ancient Faeran language, which all the animals of the forest instinctively understand. And she, in turn, can understand the language of the various animals, including the wolves, the bears, the ravens, the otters, and many others. In one particular scene, Willa has lost track of her Faeran clan, so she asks the ravens if they have seen them. In the paragraph I'm reading here, the ravens are deciding how to respond to her.

I'm excited to announce that Kirkus Reviews has awarded WILLA OF DARK HOLLOW a Kirkus Star, their highest honor. I am deeply grateful and encouraged by the kind words they’ve written about my latest novel (available for order https://amzn.to/33RMBRE​​). It’s hard to believe, but I’ve been writing novels and practicing my skills for 46 years. Writing has always been the thing I most love to do. There were entire decades where my manuscripts received nothing but rejections. So it means the world to me for Kirkus and all of you to read my novels and enjoy them. I hope you like WILLA OF DARK HOLLOW. Stay Bold! —Robert WILLA OF DARK HOLLOW is available for order wherever books are sold.
