Publisher's Synopsis
Blessed by the gods, cursed by her master, she was forced to sacrifice all for her love
A gripping Celtic novel set in Noricum, in the year 38 B.C.
Her own master has imposed a cruel commandment on the young bard: only by her constant wanderings can she protect the man she loves.
She is on her own, traveling in a dangerous world with a wolfhound and a raven, depending on her own skills to survive.
Now an injury to her faithful companion forces her to stay in the fortified settlement of the Noric ruler Voccio. He plans to unite the Celtic tribes north of the Alps under his rule in order to powerfully oppose the Romans.
Arduinna's ability to use words like arrows makes her a pawn in the struggle for power - and suddenly it's a matter of life and death.
If you liked the rich storytelling in "The Name of the Wind" by Patrick Rothfuss, you will enjoy this book, set in a real historical context. Dive into the world of the Celts and feel their heartbeat within you!
