Opis

"Red Knight and Dragon Skies" finishes the story begun in "Dragon Harper Curse" and completes Book 2 of the "Dragon Skies" series. Book 1 of the "Dragon Skies" legends retold the early years of the life of Lailoken, Myrddin of the legends, and events that led to his madness when his lord and friend Gwenddolau was destroyed at the Battle of Arderydd. In "Red Knight and Dragon Skies," Lailoken fulfills his dream to destroy Peredur and Gwrgi in retribution. Lailoken will join the delegation from Columcille, the historical St Columba of Iona, as he seeks to bring Christianity and peace to the Angles. But fate has a way of rearing its ugly head. Even as Columcille steps onto the path of peace, intrigues and schemes slither in the background. Using the Ionan delegation as subterfuge, Peredur sets into motion plans to crush the Angles and seek revenge against past allies and kinsmen. As the road winds uneasily toward war, new powers begin to rise in the land. Urien Rheged moves to solidify his control of the West. Rhyderrch seizes the lands to the old wall even as his dal Riadan ally, Aedan mac Gabran, tests his kingship of the isles. But none of the Western kings grasp the strength of the Angle kings and their belief in the prophecy that they will rule the land from sea to sea. Legend and history twist together in this dark sensual adventure of a man seeking love in a land filled with struggle.
