As the daughter and only child of
Queen Morveren and King Brenin, young Addien leads a life of luxury and security. But when all that is torn from her, she
must learn to survive by relying on her own courage and strength of character. In doing so, she also learns about trusting
others and holding on to her faith.
Set in the Dark Ages of British history, the story moves from a sophisticated Roman-built city, to a
ring of standing stones on a wild moor, to an ancient Celtic stronghold, each based on actual historical sites. In this land
of contrast merged the passion of the Celts, the intelligence of the Romans, and the influence of the early Christian church.
This is where faith and fantasy meet, where good and evil are not always clearly defined, and it is not always possible to
know the right thing to do.
