Offered in 0 more formatsWith Kelson Haldane, the first king of magical Deryni heritage to sit upon the throne of Gwynedd in centuries, the priesthood of the Eleven Kingdoms, old enemies of the Deryni, will do anything to regain control of the kingdom, even if it means inciting civil war, in a revised and expanded edition of the fantasy classic.
Young Kelson Haldane has claimed his birthright and assumed the throne of Gwynedd. For the first time in centuries, a king of Deryni heritage, possessing extraordinary magical abilities, rules the realm.
But the priesthood of the Eleven Kingdoms has held sway over the Crown for generations. They decried the Deryni as witches and heretics, drove them underground, and usurped control of the kingdom. They have no intention of ceding their power to Kelson and his supporters - even if it means inciting civil war.
