About this listen

Drawn from the myths and histories of the American Midwest, Piasa: Rite of Talons combines the legend of the Piasa dragon-bird with the Cahokia Mound City. A dark pact is made between the royal line of Ouatoga and the man-eating monster. What horrible price must be paid to ensure the prosperity of the Mound City? Who is the true enemy of the progress of mankind?

This tale was originally published in Tainted Steel: Tales of the Weird & Woeful.

Beautifully imagined and deliciously written this tale makes the listener think of the past and present. The excellent narration pulls you into a world of imagination but with so many tendrils touching our own reality. Very enjoyable and like all good tales it stays in our thoughts long after the last word is heard.
