Season 12, Episode 1: O Ugly Bird, by Manly Wade Wellman




Welcome back, Cromrades! We're excited to kick off Season 12 with O Ugly Bird (read it here), a John the Balladeer story first published in the December 1951 issue of The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction. We have a backwoods wizard, a local populace under siege, and John, who breezes through the mountains writing wrongs and singing songs!
