Synopsis
Raven Flight picks up with Neryn newly arrived at Shadowfell, the hidden rebel stronghold, where she is still wary and slow to trust those around her, including her companion Flint. Once inside the stronghold, she comes to understand that her rare gift is that of a Caller, someone able to summon the Good Folk to her side, an ability that could prove decisive against King Keldec but one she barely knows how to use. Sent out from Shadowfell again, Neryn undertakes a dangerous journey alongside the fierce rebel fighter Tali to seek out the elusive Guardians, powerful beings said to be capable of teaching her to master her Caller abilities. Their route is watched by suspicious factions of the Good Folk and constrained by a ticking timeline, as Neryn's growing power may be the rebellion's best hope of ever freeing Alban from Keldec's rule.

Notes
- From the series record (Shadowfell): A YA trilogy set in a wholly invented kingdom (Alban) distinct from the pseudo-historical Ireland/Scotland settings of Marillier's other admitted universes -- no shared world or characters with Sevenwaters, Blackthorn & Grim, the Bridei Chronicles, or Saga of the Light Isles.
