Raven Quest by Sharon Stewart Pdf

Banished! Tok, the best flyer of all the young ravens, faces a terrible fate. Falsely accused of murder, he must leave the Raven Mountains forever. If he ever returns, he will be put to death by those he once called friends and family. Tok’s only hope is to reclaim his honor by completing a quest. Long ago, the ravens lived in partnership with the Grey Lords. Can Tok reunite his kind with these legendary hunters? The quest will take him on a perilous journey into dangers he cannot even imagine... Sharon Stewart was inspired to write Raven Quest when the image of a black raven – riding on the back of a white wolf in a swirling snowstorm – flashed across her mind. The story is also grounded in scientific research about ravens’ long-standing relationship with wolves.

The Lay of the Raven by Tricia Corbett Pdf

Lay of the Raven is the first book of a historical mystery trilogy describing Roger Corbeau's activities supporting the Norman conquest of England in 1066. The Lay of the Raven takes place in medieval France and Italy prior to the invasion. When Roger and his older brother Hugh return home to the Corbeau Manor, they are both sick with a pestilence. After Hugh dies from the illness, Roger, in the depths of his fever, has a dream that he has killed his brother. A fiery haired woman appears and tells him he must undertake a quest to redeem his soul lost through the mortal sin of coveting his brother's inheritance. Roger's quest puts him in great peril as he leads a delegation to Rome to secure the Pope's designation of "Dei Gratia Rex Anglorum" sanctioning Duke William's pending invasion of England. The Pope's sanction will turn a land grab into a holy war which will make raising an army much easier. The second book, The Ravens Quest, already published, describes Roger's search for a missing Papal emissary traveling to Normandy with gifts for Duke William. The historical record indicates that he Papal "legate" disappears near Tournus, France, where his guards are found slaughtered. Although the "legate" and gifts appear one week later, there is no record of what happened to effect the rescue. In this fictional account, Roger must confront forces allied against the invasion to solve the mystery. The third book, the Barony of the Raven, deals with Roger's role in the conquest of England from Hasting to the securing of the volatile Welsh Border. The emblem of the Corbeau Clan is a Raven, which plays a key role in the trilogy.

Egyptian Magic by Maarten J. Raven Pdf

"The ancient Egyptians were firmly convinced of the importance of magic, which was both a source of supernatural wisdom and a means of affecting one's own fate. The gods themselves used it for creating the world, granting mankind magical powers as an aidto the struggle for existence. Magic formed a link between human beings, gods, and the dead. Magicians were the indispensable guardians of the god-given cosmic order, learned scholars who were always searching for the Magic Book of Thoth, which could explain the wonders of nature. Egyptian Magic, illustrated with wonderful and mysterious objects from European museum collections, describes how Egyptian sorcerers used their craft to protect the weakest members of society, to support the gods in their fightagainst evil, and to imbue the dead with immortality, and explores the arcane systems and traditions of the occult that governed this well-organized universe of ancient Egypt."--Publisher's website.

The Ravenmaster by Christopher Skaife Pdf

For centuries, the Tower of London has been home to a group of famous avian residents: the ravens. Each year they are seen by millions of visitors, and they have become as integral a part of the Tower as its ancient stones. But their role is even more important than that—legend has it that if the ravens should ever leave, the Tower will crumble into dust and great harm will befall the kingdom. The responsibility for ensuring that such a disaster never comes to pass falls to one man: the Ravenmaster. The current holder of the position is Yeoman Warder Christopher Skaife, and in this fascinating, entertaining and touching book he memorably describes the ravens’ formidable intelligence, their idiosyncrasies and their occasionally wicked sense of humour. The Ravenmaster is a compelling, inspiring and irreverent story that will delight and surprise anyone with an interest in British history or animal behaviour.

Gallus Navius Lucan was three brothers away from inheriting the Dragon Throne of Numia. That suited him, since his aspiration was to become a priest of Solan. His uncle Magnus stole that dream away when he usurped the throne and killed Lucan's family. The only survivor of the royal family, Lucan has only one aspiration now-to overthrow Magnus and take back the government of Numia. Branna ta Cattia is the Raven, the high priestess of the conquered country of Tir na Ban. She has come to Numia because she has had prophetic dreams of performing the Ritual of the Balance, a spell that will defeat Magnus and free her people. Branna searches Numia for the man who has appeared beside her in her dreams-a priest of Solan. Branna gets more than she bargained for in Lucan. He is the priest she seeks, but he is also her spirit mate. How can she perform the ritual knowing what a terrible price it will exact? This level of magic never comes without brutal cost, and in this case the cost will be one of their lives.
