The
legend is as old as time ...
The High King is dead. The land is in peril. A child has
been born to save his people. But a traitor lurks with evil
in his mind and murder in his heart, dogging the footsteps
of those who protect the babe who would be king.
But magic is at work, high magic.
Gwydion the Dreamer awakes, screaming, from a prophetic dream
of tragedy and loss, a dream peopled by kings of the past.
Though he thinks he is not ready, the Shining Ones lay a task
upon him: protect young Arthur; and locate Caladfwlch, the
lost sword of the last, murdered High King of Kymru.
Dodging assassins to find the woman who holds the key to
unlock a horrible secret, and fighting the longings of his
own shattered heart, Gwydion sets out upon his odyssey. And
finds that fate cannot be fulfilled without sacrificing the
life of someone he loves ...
