About this ebook

Can Anwen help Sagramore find a way out of the darkness?

Sagramore and Tristan are closer than brothers, sharing wine, women and an affinity for feral, furious fighting. As heir to both the King of the Magyars and the Eastern Roman throne, Sagramore is an outsider who has never been fully accepted by King Arthur’s court, or King Mark’s either.

Calm, composed Anwen Idria, oldest daughter of the King of Strathclyde, is adored by all of Camelot the moment she arrives. She refuses the attention of the passionate, fiery Sagramore, for his wildness and blistering emotions remind her too much of her father, a former slave called Idris the Slayer, who terrifies her.

When Tristan becomes obsessed with his uncle’s new Queen, Iseult, and sinks into a black maw of hate and bitterness, Sagramore must avoid being pulled in with him, for Tristan’s attachment to Iseult, a Princess of Ireland, threatens the peace of Arthur’s Britain. Can Anwen help Sagramore find a way out of the darkness? Or will the shadows which loom over Britain consume them all?

This novel is part of the historical fantasy romance series, Once and Future Hearts, set in Britain during the time of King Arthur.

Praise for Downfall of Cornwall

Her characters come to life with vibrancy, you can hear the noises of swords clashing and, the swell of various conversations in the great hall

This book is fast paced and I had trouble putting it down!

Tracy again gets the reader into the times of King Arthur. It feels like you are there.

definitely recommend it to anyone who loves the King Arthur legend, a wonderfully intricate story or just a great romance!

If I could give Downfall of Cornwall TEN stars, I would do so.

I hope this series never ends.

Ratings and reviews

Totally enthralling and compulsive reading! I couldn't put the book down! I love the unpredictable nature of the writing of Tracy Cooper-Posey. I couldn't wait to see how the overall plot would affect the main characters and where their journey would lead them as well. What a roiling adventure of family, political and royal intrigue! The personal history and political wedding environment in Camelot provided plenty of challenges for these two interesting characters and made their love story so rewarding. I'm familiar with the names in Arthurian legend, but not the stories, so I enjoy the unfolding overarching tale of the High King's life and his influences on the way of life in Britain so long ago. I found that interest or knowledge of Arthurian legend is not a prerequisite for getting hooked on this series. I have read all the books in the series as soon as they were released... (yes they are THAT GOOD!) which unfortunately has meany a gap between books rather than my usual binge reading of an engrossing series like this. Despite a shoddy memory I was quickly immersed back in Arthurian times with great reference lists to help track the rich tapestry of characters if I couldn't remember where a character fitted in...taking into account there are generations by book #8! I highly recommend reading this book and especially the series in correct order.

This is the 8th book in this series and once again we have an amazing story. We get so much within this story; humorous, but the no-nonsense attraction that blooms into love, the camaraderie between life long friends that spirals into a disaster, jealousy beyond reason, secretive affairs come to light, a scary father whose daughter finally understand his love. What makes the story so outstanding is the "realness" of it, you just know what your reading has to have happened. The reason for this is the authors attention to every detail of the time period, from the clothes that wore, the food they ate, the acceptable behavior and protocols of that period, even how and why their buildings were built they were. We are flies on the walls built by the author and her amazing research. Among all this we get to see characters from previous books, I just love that. I figure you can tell by now that although I've given no spoilers, this story, like the others in the series, is a wonderful read, filled with love and action. Go get it, but start early as you won't want to put it down.

Captivating addition to the Once and Future Hearts series. It is beautifully written with incredible a storytelling and plot development. This story is exciting and makes for one heck of a page turner.
