A chilling ghost story about the life of Eleyne, daughter of Llewylyn the Great and Joan of England...wonderfully atmospheric. ( ) In 1218 Eleyne is born amidst a burning castle in Wales. From infancy, her nurse brings her up to support the Celtic cause against the English and she is taught how to use the flames to see into the future. Throughout her fascinating life, Eleyne is married four times and produces numerous children. Several of the characters link up to character in other Erskine novels. I have read several of Barbara Erskine's books, and so far this is my favorite. The characters she created were vibrant and extremely engaging. I love the historical aspects she throws into her novels and I can't wait to read more. I only wish I had discovered this author earlier. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Beautiful repackage of this Barbara Erskine classic, the story of a remarkable mediaeval noblewoman whose life shaped the history of three crowns The child whose hands would hold three crowns is born in fire. In 1218 an extraordinary princess is born. Her mystical powers and unquenchable spirit will alter the course of history. Raised by her fiercely Welsh nurse to support the Celtic cause against the predatory English king, Princess Eleyne is taught to worship the old gods and to look into the future and the past. However, unable to identify time and place in her terrifying visions, she is powerless to avert forthcoming tragedy... Despite impassioned resistance, Eleyne's world is shaped by powerful men - but her tempestuous life and loves tie her to the destinies of England, Scotland and Wales...
