Books & Chains

Books & Chains We're a two-woman business operating in the Pacific Northwest. We sell speculative fiction novels and chainmaille jewelry inspired by these books.

That cliche wasn’t going anywhere less…cliche. Basically, we’re a two-woman small business operating in the Pacific Northwest.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by our booth at Seattle WorldCon!

Just a reminder that Elise does not sell her chainmaille jewelry online. However, Raven’s books are available at bookstores worldwide.

You can support Raven better by buying direct! You can get their books (physical & ebook) and their art direct at shop.ravenoak.net!

The official store for multi-award winning speculative fiction author & artist Raven Oak.
