From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the House of Night series comes an epic, magic-filled romantasy about the British warrior queen Boudicca. In Roman-occupied Britain, the Iceni tribe crowns a fierce new queen. Tall and flame-haired, Boudicca is devoted to Andraste, their patron goddess, and is determined to lead her tribe through perilous times alongside her two young daughters. When Roman tax collector Catus Decianus underestimates her strength and attacks, Boudicca and her family narrowly escape but refuse to submit. She convenes a war council with trusted allies, including her childhood friend Rhan, a powerful Druid seer, and Maldwyn, a devoted horse master. Together, they surprise the Romans, successfully sacking the wealthy cities of Camulodunum, Londinium, and Verulamium. As winter descends, the Celts retreat to a hidden valley to strategize their next move against the Roman legions. However, Rhan foresees a tragic end to Boudicca’s rebellion, predicting defeat as foretold by the gods. Determined to change fate, Rhan vows to save her queen. Boudicca must now navigate treachery and the might of Rome, placing her trust in otherworldly powers to secure her legacy as one of history’s most legendary female warriors.
