John Plantagenet rules an England beset by internal turmoil. At the heart of his court, demon-born Radburn Blakely plots to control the country and destroy the only person who can thwart his schemes--a young woman descended from both Arthur Pendragon and the wizard Merlin. Part love story, part historical fantasy, the second installment of Radford's fantasy series depicts 13th-century England in all its complex machinations. Fans of Arthurian legends, in particular, should appreciate this richly textured story of a young woman's courage in the face of dark powers. For most fantasy collections.
