Raven
Raven Wood spends her days at Florence's Uffizi gallery restoring Renaissance art. But an innocent walk home after an evening with friends changes her life forever. When she intervenes in the senseless beating of a homeless man, his attackers turn on her, dragging her into an alley. Raven is only semiconscious when their assault is interrupted by a cacophony of growls followed by her attackers' screams. Mercifully, she blacks out, but not before catching a glimpse of a shadowy figure who whispers to her . . . Cassita vulneratus. When Raven awakes, she is inexplicably changed. Upon returning to the Uffizi, no one recognizes her. More disturbingly, she discovers that she's been absent an entire week. With no recollection of her disappearance, Raven learns that her absence coincides with one of the largest robberies in Uffizi history--the theft of a set of priceless Botticelli illustrations. When the police identify her as their prime suspect, Raven is desperate to clear her name. She seeks out one of Florence's wealthiest and most elusive men in an attempt to uncover the truth. Their encounter leads Raven to a dark underworld whose inhabitants kill to keep their secrets . . .

Raven Transforms
This first-ever monograph of a Haida argillite carver features nearly 200 artworks by Kihl'yahda Christian White, most never seen in public before, along with the artist’s telling of the supernatural stories that inspired them.Kihl’yahda Christian White is often described by his peers as a “natural-born carver.” Since first picking up a knife as a teenager five decades ago, he has become one of the most accomplished artists on the Northwest Coast and a fierce advocate of Haida culture. At home in Haida Gwaii, he is known for monumental cedar poles, longhouses, and canoes that bring the entire community together in celebration.Beyond Haida Gwaii, he is best known for intricate carvings in argillite, or “black shale,” the fine-grained stone found only on Haida Gwaii, its use strictly regulated by the Haida Nation. Since artists first started carving argillite to trade with Europeans around 1800 such works have served as emissaries for Haida culture, a practice that White continues today—his exquisite works with their dazzling inlays of abalone shell and mastodon ivory are highly sought-after by devoted patrons around the world.The consistent demand for White’s argillite work means it rarely enters the public view. For this publication, several major private collections in Canada and the U.S. were newly photographed so the works can be seen beyond their homes for the first time. Gary Wyatt, White’s longtime gallerist, interviewed the artist at length to inform his sketch of a life devoted to art and community. In her foreword Karen Duffek reflects on the “two worlds” that his practices inhabit. And White himself shares two dozen traditional Haida stories that appear alongside his works, tales of Travelling Raven, Sea Grizzly, Volcano Woman, Lazy Son-in-Law, and more—the supernatural beings whose deeds shaped the Haida world, and whose unique forms are captured with brilliant elegance in White’s extraordinary work.

Raven King
A gripping account of an extraordinary Renaissance monarch and the quest for his treasured library Seizing the Hungarian throne at the age of fifteen, Matthias Corvinus, the "Raven King,” was an effervescent presence on the fifteenth-century stage. A successful warrior and munificent art patron, he sought to leave as symbols of his strategic and humanist ambitions a strong, unified country, splendid palaces, and the most magnificent library in Christendom. But Hungary, invaded by Turkey after Matthias's death in 1490, yielded its treasures, and the Raven King’s exquisite library of two thousand volumes, witness to a golden cultural age, was dispersed first across Europe and then the world.The quest to recover this collection of sumptuously illuminated scripts provoked and tantalized generations of princes, cardinals, collectors, and scholars and imbued Hungarians with the mythical conviction that the restoration of the lost library would seal their country's rebirth. In this thrilling and absorbing account, drawing on a wealth of original sources in several languages, Marcus Tanner tracks the destiny of the Raven King and his magnificent bequest, uncovering the remarkable story of a life and library almost lost to history.
