The Roost - the world’s most prestigious military academy - has never accepted a Crow into its ranks. Until now.

Between flight tests, classes, and Murders, Scra, Ky and Ree must band together to uncover the truth about their utopia and the whispers of a superweapon - “The Croaking” - that are seeping from the cracks.

The Croaking was nominated for the 2020 Ringo Award for Best Webcomic.
