How Much Is a Crow Worth?

Yesterday, while working out at the gym, I listened to Seth Dickinson's "Worth of Crows," (Read by Michael J. DeLuca), from the current issue of online literary fantasy magazine Beneath Ceaseless Skies. This is the second Dickinson story I have heard on BCS, the first being "The Traitor Baru Cormorant, Her Field-General, and Their Wounds," from BCS 073. Both are excellent swords and sorcery tales, as is Chris Willrich's "How the Wicker Knight Would Not Move." Beneath Ceaseless Skies continues to push my buttons by offering literary adventure fantasy. Not "literary fantasy", not "adventure fantasy", but "literary adventure fantasy," which is just what the world needs more of. My world, at any rate.
