The Door on the Sea (The Raven and Eagle, 1) [Russell, Caskey]

Author: Caskey Russell

An epic quest fantasy debut that is the Tlingit indigenous response to The Lord of the Rings

When Eln trapped a salmon-stealing raven in his cupboard, he never expected it would hold the key to saving his people from the shapeshifting Koosh invaders plaguing their shores. In exchange for its freedom, the raven offers a secret that can save Eln’s home: the Koosh have lost one of their most powerful weapons, and only the raven knows where it is.

Eln is tasked with captaining a canoe crewed by an unlikely team including a human bear-cousin, a massive wolf, and the endlessly vulgar raven. To retrieve the weapon, they will face stormy seas, cannibal giants and a changing world. But Eln is a storyteller, not a warrior.

As their world continues to fall to the Koosh, and alliances are challenged and broken, Eln must choose his role in his own epic story.
