Download or read book The Legends of Camber of Culdi Trilogy written by Katherine Kurtz and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 1101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three fantasy novels of intrigue, betrayal, and magic in medieval Gwynedd by the New York Times–bestselling author of the Deryni series—bonus story also included. Camber of Culdi: Long before Camber was revered as a saint, he was a Deryni noble, one of the most respected of the magical race whose arcane skills set them apart from ordinary humans in the kingdom of Gwynedd. Now, the land suffers under the tyranny of King Imre, whose savage oppression of the human population weighs heavily on Camber’s heart—a heart that is about to be shattered by a tragic loss that will lead him to confront the usurpers whose dark magic haunts the realm. Saint Camber: The yoke of tyranny has finally been lifted in Gwynedd, but Camber’s job remains unfinished. The dangerous remnants of a conquered enemy still mass at the borders, and the new ruler is desperately unhappy wearing the crown. With the stability of a fragile kingdom at stake, its greatest champion must make the ultimate sacrifice: Camber of Culdi must cease to exist. Camber the Heretic: The king’s heir is a mere boy of twelve, and the malevolent regents who will rule until young Alroy comes of age are determined to eliminate all Deryni. Suddenly, the future of Gwynedd hangs in the balance, and Camber—once adored as a saint, but now reviled as a heretic—must find a way to protect his people before everything and everyone he loves is destroyed in the all-consuming flames of intolerance and hate. Filled with mysticism and magic, these sagas reminds us that “Kurtz’s love of history lets her do things with her characters and their world that no non-historian could hope to do” (Chicago Sun-Times).

Plus saves his citizens, feeds them delectable food, and builds a grand kingdom in the process. Quinn Chen has her life planned out after university graduation—working in one of the biggest medical research companies and then maybe dating again after a bad breakup. The only problem is on the day of her graduation, she is hit by a truck and wakes up to find herself as eighteen-year-old Quinn Fairchild in a war-torn medieval-like fantastical world full of magic and monsters and is forced to become a bride to an infamous, ruthless, cold-blooded warrior of an earl. Swept not only into the isolated, strangely beautiful, lush land of Norsewood, but the powerful arms of the piercing blue-eyed Lord Aldric Templeton, Quinn—armed with blessings—must navigate her way through poverty-stricken, dangerous medieval life with a modern mindset and maybe even teach her gorgeous golden-haired husband, who is both kind and gentle and nothing like the merciless character that rumors imply, that having a girl from another world as a bride isn't so bad after all. Apparently, I’m the Infamous Earl’s Legendary Bride is a romantic fantasy series featuring a vivacious heroine with a determination to change and improve the lives of civilians in a medieval-like, war-torn world with the use of her modern knowledge and her magic and a hunky hero hell-bent on protecting his land and people and claiming his bride’s love.

Download or read book Legends of Growth written by Daniel Richmond and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-11-03 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The kin, a scaled species, rules the continent. They have a problem: a plague runs riot over the continent. The kin die and two species are in their place. Dragons and half-kin. The half-kin, gray or pale species, are either killed or forced to serve in the king's guard. Their loyalty is absolute. Two come out in prominence: Del and Chow. Del is a boy of eight and the equal of many masters in the spellweavers, an order that investigates nearly everything, from worldly occupations to magic, martial arts, and war. Chow, a member of three orders of the spellweavers, is the leader of a rebel group. He has the plague. Del, as a boy of eight, cannot stand the spellweavers. They live on a mountain. He has been ordered not to leave until the fifteenth year. Then trouble begins. The plague spreads. After, the king's new weapon turns; the dragons want power and, most importantly, food. Heroes from the continent survive. Another empire eyes this continent with greedy eyes. Their leader wants to conquer it and spread his empire. The plague has no effect on those from this empire. No one knows why. Del and the other heroes must strive to save the continent from being killed by the rampaging dragons, whose power isn't the only problem--their numbers are as well. This new empire may be the hope or the threat they fear.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From tattered scrolls, through time and war, many of the legends of Auryona have survived. The Return of the Queen is one such legend. Just days after Eire's King fell in battle, the country was plunged into terror. The queen and princess were missing and Prince Terquin announced that they had left in the night and were presumed dead. Years went by and tyranny, war, and bloodshed mixed with rumors that the queen still lived. Terquin and Hrolf fought over their father's throne, using the people as their weapons. It seemed as if nothing could be done to save the people and the land from the darkness that shrouded them. One man broke away from Terquin and waged his own war. Morgard, loyal to the king and queen, served Terquin for too long. He broke ranks and set out for eastern Eire. There he will make his stand, there he will wait for his Queen. Morgard's actions will turn the tables on Terquin. The new shift in power and loyalty will open the door for the queen to return. Her return to her land will not be the end of the story. They will not simply yield the throne to her. The battle to reclaim the throne will shape Eire's future.
