As the mighty Roman conqueror fades from the captured Isle of Britain, a doomed kingdom of Atlantis is torn apart by bloody war. Charis, a courageous princess from Atlantis, and Taliesin, a fabled seer and druid prince, find themselves drawn together in an incomparable love that joins two astonishing worlds amid the fires of chaos.
This is a story of cataclysmic upheaval and heroic love, set in a time of mythic wonders, that spawns the miracles of Merlin and Arthur the king.
Highly recommended for fans of C. S. Lewis and anyone who loves epic tales of adventure and romance.
