Published in 2023, the Corax Trilogy follows a man who has built a life out of arriving at battlefields after the armies have moved on. His crew strips the dead, repairs the salvage, and sells it on. It is grim, profitable work, and Corax is good at it.
The catch is that Corax is running from something, and the trilogy gradually reveals what that is while putting him through increasingly impossible situations. The books combine Parker’s usual interest in practical trades with a fast-moving plot and a protagonist who is both likable and deeply unreliable.
