A royal daughter on the run. A ruthless enemy in pursuit. Only courage and a touch of magic can save her and the world she knows.
Guardian of the Realm, the fourth book in The Queen's Fayte series, takes readers back to the magical origin of the Fayte Legacy in the ancient Celtic world and the rise of the first Keeper of the Fayte. A new beginning in the thrilling dark fantasy adventure series by D.D. Croix.
As the youngest daughter of Queen Boudica, Eithne has always lived in the shadow of her older, more confident sister. Cait has her mother’s bold spirit and a thirst for power, while Eithne finds quiet comfort among the household servants.
It’s a carefree life until the Romans seize their kingdom. Desperate, Boudica gives her daughters the magical gifts that aided her in battle before sacrificing herself and sending her girls to seek sanctuary with the druids, with only a handmaiden and a mysterious—possibly dangerous—stranger to guide them.
But when those new, otherworldly gifts have an unexpected effect on Cait and the Romans track them down, Eithne must risk everything to fight the battle for their freedom. Will she give in to her own doubts and demons, or will she become the hero her people need so the Fayte Legacy can endure?
