Music, Musicians, and The Wolf and the Wild King – K.V. Johansen

I seem to write about musicians a lot. Moth and Mikki and Deyandara in the Gods of the Caravan Road series, Rookfeather in the Torrie books, Thomas Smith Gorev and his band in Love/Rock/Compost, Eleanor in Treason in Eswy, and the various minstrels and harpers in The Serpent Bride, a collection of short stories based on medieval Danish ballads, are all singers and storytellers in one form or anoth
