Song Of The Huntress Synopsis

A warrior of the beleaguered Eceni tribe, Herla fights alongside her lover, Boudica, to free her people from the yoke of Rome. In exchange for the power to drive the empire from Britain, she makes a desperate pact with Gwyn ap Nudd, king of the Otherworld. But time passes differently there. When Herla and her warband return to the world, they find Boudica long dead and the Eceni people scattered.

Cursed to carry Gwyn’s black blade, Herla becomes Lord of the Hunt. For centuries, she sleeps beneath Glastonbury Tor, waking when the moon is old to ride and reap the souls of any who cross her path. Until the night she meets a woman on a bloody battlefield, a Saxon queen with ice-blue eyes, and a heart as fierce as Boudica’s.

An experienced commander, Æthelburg of Wessex fights to gain the respect of the men around her. When a battle she leads goes disastrously wrong, political forces begin to move against her, driving a wedge between Æthel and her husband, King Ine.

Yet Ine needs Æthel’s support more than ever. The dead kings of Wessex are waking, and his own brother seeks to usurp him. As Britons in his kingdom start dying, Ine realises his only hope is to master the power that has lain dormant in his bloodline since the days of Constantine, the legendary king of Dumnonia. But the Christian Church has grown powerful, and magic in Wessex is heresy.

When their paths cross, Herla knows it is not coincidence. At the heart of it all is Gwyn ap Nudd, the shadowy figure from her past. As Samhain approaches – weakening the walls between worlds – and she and Æthel grow closer, Herla must find the courage to remember the person she once was, and a way to break Gwyn’s curse before it is too late.
