Call Down the Hawk

Call Down the Hawk is the first book in Maggie Stiefvater's Dreamer Trilogy, a sequel series to her popular Raven Cycle. It delves into a world where certain individuals, called dreamers, can manifest objects and even living beings from their dreams into reality. This power comes with immense responsibility and danger, as the 'dreamed' are dependent on their creators, and others seek to exploit or eliminate dreamers. The story follows three main characters: Ronan Lynch, a powerful dreamer; Jordan Hennessy, a thief drawn to dream objects; and Carmen Farooq-Lane, a hunter whose brother was a dreamer and a killer. Parents should be aware of themes of power, control, identity, and moderate peril and violence, suitable for mature young adult readers.
