      In Julia Ember's dark and lush LGBTQ+ romantic fantasy Ruinsong, two young women from rival factions must work together to reunite their country, as they wrestle with their feelings for each other. Her voice was her prison... Now it’s her weapon. In a world where magic is sung, a powerful mage named Cadence has been forced to torture her country's disgraced nobility at her ruthless queen's bidding. But when she is reunited with her childhood friend, a noblewoman with ties to the underground rebellion, she must finally make a choice: Take a stand to free their country from oppression, or follow in the queen’s footsteps and become a monster herself.

      Caravaggio to Canaletto - A stunning exhibition catalogue from the Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest. The catalogue seeks to provide a comprehensive picture of Italian Baroque and Rococo painting, containing numerous new research results pertaining to issues of attribution, iconography and collecton history relating to the discussed period. The exhibition catalogue charts the twin-track rise of the post-Renaissance naturalism of Caravaggio and his followers - reaching scandalous heights as early as 1593 with his Boy with a Basket of Fruit - and the formal classicism of Carracci and Reni.
