Publisher's Synopsis
The Royal Burden: Life in the DNA of Kings - Part 2 continues the awe-inspiring memoir of Garrick David Pattenden, Lord of Kilnaish and Lord of the Glen. In this second volume, truth takes centre stage-not as speculation, but as irrefutable evidence. Through DNA confirmation, ancestral records, land deeds, heraldic seals, and royal bloodlines traced across centuries, Garrick reveals a living legacy that can no longer be silenced.
From confirmed genetic descent from King Béla III of Hungary to direct ties with the House of Árpád, Plantagenets, Tudors, and Windsors, this memoir delivers a historical reckoning. Part Two is more than a continuation-it is a coronation of truth.
Walk with Garrick as he exposes the forgotten crests of the Pattenden line, stands on ancestral land in Scotland's Glen, and challenges the institutions that prefer royal lineage to remain buried. With lyrical precision and unwavering dignity, he brings forward the voices of his forebears-those erased by time but now honoured by proof.
This is not a fantasy. It is living history backed by science and sealed with honour. This is what happens when the blood remembers-and refuses to fade.
