INTERMEDIATE FICTION
(4) 4-6 Raven, a bird-mage, confronts her feelings of maternal abandonment while rescuing her mother and infant half-sister from the steward who once held them in bond-slavery. The tale never quite transcends a commonplace woodland-flight-and-pursuit fantasy plot, but readers who get behind Raven's irritable exterior will find her an earnest heroine.
