Book Description
For millennia, we have tried to explain ourselves using the raven as a symbol. It occupies a unique place in British history and has left an indelible mark on our cultural landscape. The raven's hulking black shape has come to represent many things: death, all-seeing power, the underworld, and a wildness that remains deep within us. Legend has it that the fate of the nation rests upon the raven, and should the resident birds ever leave the Tower of London then the entire kingdom will fall. While so much of our wildlife is vanishing, ravens are returning to their former habitats after centuries of exile, moving back from their outposts at the very edge of the country, to the city streets from which they once scavenged the bodies of the dead. In A Shadow Above, Joe Shute follows ravens across their new hunting grounds, examining our complicated and challenging relationship with these birds. He meets people who live alongside the raven in conflict and peace, unpicks their fierce intelligence, and ponders what the raven's successful return might come to symbolise for humans in the dark times we now inhabit.

Book Description
Jena Krieger grew up in a dirty little village on the edge of civilization during the twilight of humanity. Life in Hammett, Idaho was bucolic for most, but Jena struggles against nearly every one and every thing except her aging and beloved grandfather; known once to the entire world as Krieger the Killer, hero of the alien war. Her early life in a fractured home is prelude to an inevitably frustrating adolescence and though she matures into an exceptionally bright and resourceful young woman she remains torn between social expectations and family heritage. A series of tragic events forces Jena to turn her back on her community and strike out on her own to face the impossible and kick its ass. The vast landscape of southern Idaho, from sagebrush plains to mountain wilderness, is the stage on which is played a fight for vengeance, identity, and dignity. It is a world filled with sheep and scavengers; a world desperately in need of predators. Ravens Rise is a redemptive tale about the imperative of dreams and sacrifice as well as a warning that victory and liberation can bring great suffering and isolation.
