Russian Style Super-Strangeness In Kotar's Fourth Raven Episode

A Review of

Nicholas Kotar The Forge of the Covenant (Book Four of Raven Son Series)  [Waystone Press, 2019]
                         88 pp   $    ISBN: 9780998847986

Reviewer:  Forrest Schultz

     The Russian style strangeness which I noted in my review of Kotar's third Raven Son book is in this fourth episode multiplied into a weird super-strangeness which becomes overpowering!  (Kotar was wise to limit its length to that of a novella!)  To the reader I highly recommend that you first read the rear jacket cover, which provides the context of the story, which is the mystic adventure and quest of the central character, Lebia, who is the Russian version of Sleeping Beauty.
