Description
Memory is a danger. It unlocks the door to madness…
The year is AD 573. Languoreth is imprisoned in her own home, awaiting news of a battle. Her husband and first-born son have ridden off to war against her twin brother and the men her son admires most: Uther Pendragon’s “Dragon Warriors.” Her nine-year-old daughter was apprenticed to Lailoken, training to be a Wisdom Keeper. Who has lived and who has died?
As the winds of battle scatter Languoreth’s loved ones to the far corners of Scotland’s dramatically beautiful landscape, they encounter knife-edged danger, unspeakable loss, mystical realms, political subterfuge, and fascinating new cultures. Amidst it all, Languoreth takes her throne as queen, stepping into the test of a climactic battle that will determine the destiny of her family and her kingdom.
Bitter rivalries are ignited, lost loves are found, new loves are born, and old enemies come face-to-face with their reckoning in this intensely absorbing, relentlessly compelling new look at one of the most enduring legends of all time.
The Second Volume in The Lost Queen Trilogy
