A Matthew Swift Novel

It s said that if the ravens ever leave the Tower of London, then the Tower will crumble and the kingdom will fall. As it happens, that s not so far from the truth...

Against his better judgement, resurrected sorcerer Matthew Swift is about to find out. And if he s lucky, he might just live long enough to do something about it...
