Trilogy. Court of Crows

The Court of Crows is not something you want to experience more than once. But you have no choice if they want something from you. You have no say about where they send you, or even when they send you. Do the job they give you and hope they bring you back. The townsfolk turn a blind-eye to a lesbian couple (and their flying cat) living on the outskirts, but we're the first they call if there's a monster that needs killing.
Life would be far sweeter if the Court also left us alone.
