"Great philosophers left something of their spirit within the pages of their works..."
Daughter of the head of a secret society in 1860s Germany, Inge Kron embarks on a mission to find a rare manuscript by the English mystic Dr. John Dee. She finds herself at the court of Hannover, having to muster skills of deception and flattery just as much as book learning. But she is being watched. When she meets the younger princess of Hannover who has been studying Dee’s work, she finds that the book has a strange effect on those who read it. The Prussian army is closing in on Hannover, and with the eyes of another secret society also set on the manuscript, there is little time to obtain the book. But the question remains: what strange magic is hidden within its pages?
Join Inge on this immersive historical fantasy. Get lost in esoteric books, powerful secrets, and unravel a mystery culminating from centuries across time.
What early readers are saying...
"I can only recommend Mask of the Raven. It is a beautifully written Fantasy book with many great ideas and a well executed plot. If you are looking for a unique, magical fantasy read that will also challenge you to think about the mysteries of the world, Mask of the Raven will be perfect for you." - Astra Knox
"I enjoyed this book so much that I read it twice! One of the things that I love about this author's books and short stories, is that you can read them simply for the wonderful adventures, realistic characters, and super imaginative settings, but there is also a very intriguing mix of history, philosophy, mysticism, fantasy, and science in them! Have I left anything out?! I can only imagine the amount of research it must take to write a book like this. I absolutely love the historical setting, with some characters being real historical figures, and such a great story woven into that background. The characters feel real, and the settings are described in a wonderful evocative way, so I could really imagine what it would be like to be there. I'm hoping for a sequel!" - Margo Harris
"I thoroughly loved reading the novel ‘Mask of the Raven’ by Mary-Jean Harris. The story was beautifully crafted and offered some surprising turns of events. This really is a must read for fans of historical fantasy." - Laurie Lemoine
